Stel♋lar Blade's very NSFW character skin makes the action-RPG much harder if you're down bad en💛ough to equip it.

Last week, Sony rap💙idly scru🉐bbed a Stellar Blade demo from the PSN storefront after it went live a little ahead of schedule. Some people were still able to get in on the action, leading to the discovery of brand new in-game skins for protagonis𝓀t Eve. One, called the 'Skin Suit,' has quickly amassed a dedicated following on Twitterꦓ, to put it mildly.

notes, the Skin Suit has an intriguing description. When equipped, the skin fully disables Eve's in-game Shield ability,♑ meaning you'll effectively have less in-game defense to rely on for🐻 Eve when using the Skin Suit and thus make yourself far more vulnerable.

"Skin suits are outfits crafted by Mother Sphere," the description of the Skin Suit for Eve further reads. "It covers the body of the Airborne Squad M🅺ember and deploys on its own, or expands and contracts depend൩ing on the situation. In other words, it's like a living skin."

The lack of a shield for the Skin Suꦓit makes perfect sen൩se—if you ditch all your clothes, you're going to be left more vulnerable. It's slightly reminiscent of the self-destruct ability from Nier: Automata, where protagonist 2B could take off her skirt, but her health would drop to just one point.

Stellar Blade launches next month on April 26 as a PS5 exclusive. Read our full 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Stellar Blade interview with the game's director for more on how it's secretly a fully-f𒁏ledged RPG thanks to its customization options for Eve.
