Naughty Dog's concept artist sparked controversy after sharing artwork of Stellar Blade's protagonist, Eva, on X. The design, deemed unattractive and masculine by many fans, drew overwhelmingly negative reactions. Comments flooded the post, criticizing the portrayal as "ugly," "terrible," and even "repulsive," with accusations of the designer intentionally making Eva appear "awakened."
This incident follows recent criticism of Naughty Dog's alleged inclusion of explicit DEI content in their upcoming game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. The trailer for this sci-fi adventure reportedly broke the record for most dislikes on a video game trailer.
The original design of Eva in Stellar Blade, created by Shift Up, was a significant factor in the game's success, earning widespread praise for its beauty and contributing to Eva's popularity among players. The stark contrast between the original and the newly shared concept art highlights the significant difference in reception.
