Stellar Blade's Festive Holiday Update: New Outfits, Decorations, and a Mini-Game!
Get ready for some holiday cheer in Stellar Blade! Shift Up is launching a festive event on December 17th, bringing Christmas spirit to Xion. This update includes new holiday-themed costumes, decorations, and a fun mini-game.
Festive New Looks:
Eve and other characters are getting stylish holiday makeovers! Check out these new outfits:
- Santa Dress (Eve)
- Rudolph Pack (Drone)
- I’m No Santa (Adam)
Eve can complete her look with a new Santa Girl hairstyle and accessories like Snow Crystal Glasses, Wreath Earrings, and Sleigh Ear Cuffs.
A Holiday Transformation for Xion:
Xion itself is getting a festive makeover! The Last Gulp and Eve's camp will be decked out in warm lights and red, green, and white decorations. Enjoy the new seasonal BGM, "Dawn (Winter)" and "Take me away," for a relaxing atmosphere. A new mini-game will also debut, offering special rewards for hitting targets on holiday-themed drones (details to be revealed!).
Control Your Festive Fun:
The update introduces an option to enable or disable seasonal content, including the Nier:Automata DLC. Find this setting under Gameplay in the game's options menu. You can choose:
- Auto: Seasonal content automatically enabled/disabled based on the season.
- Disable: Deactivate seasonal content regardless of the season.
- Enable: Activate seasonal content regardless of the season.
Note: Changing this setting will restart the game to your most recent save.
Mixed Reactions:
While most fans are excited about the update, some have expressed concerns about the frequency of events in a single-player game with a relatively short playtime (around 30 hours). The need to restart the game to fully experience the seasonal content has also been a point of discussion.
