Stellar Blade x NieR Automata

Shift Up had several announcements for Stellar Blade during the recent State of Play, including footage of the upcoming Photo Mode. It outlined various expressions, filters, camera settings, lighting, and poses players can use. Though originally slated for August, it’s now arriving sometime this year.

However, perhaps more importantly, a collaboration with Square Enix’s NieR: Automata has been confirmed. Also arriving later this year, the footage sees Eve and her drone transforming into 2B and the Pod 042 as they look out over the landscape.

It’s unknown whether this is simply cosmetic DLC or new content. We’ll need to wait for more details, but a collaboration seemed like a foregone conclusion, especially since the title was a “huge driving force” for Stellar Blade. In the meantime, the game’s original soundtrack, with over 180 tracks, is available to stream.

Stellar Blade is available for PS5 and has sold over one million units. Check out our review for more details on its combat, story, and more. Shift Up is considering a PC port and sequel, though nothing is confirmed. Head here for more details.
