My Stellar Blade review docks the normally fun and flashy action-RPG for a few janky and disruptive elements that hurt its flow state, so it's nice to see developer Shift Up actively and aggressively smoothing some of that stuff out with pretty rapid patches.
It turns out the day-one update which introduced a shockingly ambitious New Game+ mode also takes aim at the fundamental controls, tightening up some slight but noticeable delays and inconsistencies in Eve's movement.
