Stellar Blade Gets Santa Eve Costume in Season Event Update

Shift Up announced via the PlayStation Blog that Eve and her allies will be celebrating Christmas and the holiday season in Stellar Blade, as a free seasonal event update will launch on December 17, 2024. In addition to cosmetic changes in areas, there will be a new minigame to play in the PS5 game. We can also get Santa costumes to unlock for Eve, Adam, and the Drone in Stellar Blade. 

Some of the cosmetics happen automatically either when the holiday season approaches or you force it to happen in the options menu. That puts snowmen, Christmas trees, evergreen and light strands, and other decorations around Xion and Eve’s camp in Stellar Blade when the season event is active. The two new songs in the jukebox are “Dawn (Winter)” and “Take Me Away.” You don’t need to unlock any of these. There will be a minigame that appears during this event, which involves what looks like a wreath dart board with a wrapped present attached below it. It seems hitting the mark causes the gift to drop and a reward to be earned.

The Santa Eve, Adam, and Drone costumes do need to be unlocked in Stellar Blade. Eve can get a Santa Dress, Santa Girl hairstyle, Snow Crystal Glasses, Sleigh Ear Cuffs, and Wrath Earrings. Adam can wear I’m No Santa. The Rudolph Pack turns the Drone into a reindeer.

Here’s how all of those additions will look come tomorrow:

This is the second recent update for Stellar Blade. The NieR: Automata DLC debuted in November 2024. That’s a paid bonus. However, the free Photo Mode update also arrived at the same time. That allowed everyone to take more detailed screenshots that were edited in-game. Photo Requests showed up in-game at the same time.

Stellar Blade is available on the PS5, and the Season Event update for Christmas arrives on December 17, 2024.
