Thousands of gamers have signed a petition demanding the removal of censorship from Stellar Blade

A couple of days ago, gamers began to massively criticize the developers of Stellar Blade for censoring one of the costumes. It got to the point where some started to return the game for a refund, citing false advertising.

However, the scandal did not end there. Former World of Warcraft developer and blogger Mark Kern launched a petition on Change.org demanding the restoration of the cut content. Three days after the release, the petition gathered more than 40,000 signatures.

Stellar Blade is more than a game, it has become a cultural beacon for freedom of expression in a time where Game Publishers like Sony are censoring games more than ever. Stellar Blade was a breath of fresh air and gamer rallied behind it because it meant things were changing, getting better, and the voice of creative freedom was ringing loud and clear.

But for reasons unknown, the game was censored, changes were made. What we received after our good faith purchase was not the same as advertised.

We believe in the game, we believe in Shift Up, and we are asking to get the game we believed in. Revert the censorship changes, patch the game, and you will find that even more gamers will join you and support you!
— Mark Kern

Stellar Blade was released on April 26 on PlayStation 5.
