Shift Up has announced a holiday-themed update for Stellar Blade is now available. This festive event transforms Xion into a cozy, decorated space filled with seasonal warmth and surprises.
The update centres around Xion’s festive holiday makeover. A brightly lit Christmas tree now graces the city square. It spreads festive cheer where there was once only cold, industrial calm. The Last Gulp, Xion’s popular bar and community hub, has been adorned with warm lights and decorations. It creates a welcoming space for citizens to gather and celebrate.
Festive Costumes and Accessories
Eve and Adam are ready to celebrate in style. Eve’s Santa Dress and Santa Girl hairstyle bring a cheerful holiday look, paired with accessories like Snow Crystal Glasses, Wreath Earrings, and Sleigh Ear Cuffs. Adam’s “I’m No Santa” costume adds a humorous twist, complete with a white beard that matches his grumpy demeanour.
Even drones are joining the fun, with the Rudolph Pack turning Eve’s robotic companion into a festive sleigh leader, complete with a glowing red nose and antlers. These cosmetics help you get into the holiday spirit. They offer playful ways to customize your characters and show off in Xion’s festive streets.
Mini-Game Fun and Seasonal Music
The new mini-game provides a fun change of pace from the game’s challenging survival gameplay. By shooting at wreath-wrapped targets, you can unlock festive rewards. While specific prizes haven’t been revealed, the promise of holiday-themed treasures makes it worth a try.
Seasonal music tracks, ‘Dawn (Winter)’ and ‘Take Me Away,’ play in camps, creating a calming backdrop between missions. Combined with the decorations, they bring a relaxing and festive holiday atmosphere.
Stellar Blade Lets You Celebrate the Holidays Your Way
Finally, Shift Up has introduced an On/Off toggle for seasonal and DLC content. This includes the popular NieR: Automata crossover. This feature gives you full control over how you want to experience the game, whether you’re in the mood for holiday cheer or prefer the standard gameplay environment.
Stellar Blade’s holiday update is a free addition that invites you to enjoy the holidays in Xion. Don’t miss out on the festive costumes, cheerful mini-game, and cozy atmosphere.
