Unlocking All Endings in Stellar Blade

To unlock all the endings in Stellar Blade, you will need to play through the game three times. However, each playthrough only allows for unlocking one ending, so you must decide which ending you want and strive for it. Alternatively, you can unlock one ending naturally in your first playthrough and then aim for the opposite in your subsequent playthrough.

One of the three possible endings includes not taking a side with Adam, while the second involves choosing the default ending. The third ending can be achieved by gathering the various Data Bank items scattered throughout the world and improving your relationship with Lily.

Please keep in mind that reaching the end of Abyss Levoire will result in the city of Xion and various other content becoming inaccessible for the remainder of your playthrough. Once you progress past Spire 4, you will not be able to return to previous areas.

Cost of Lost Memories ending

The default ending for the Cost of Lost Memories is achieved by agreeing to take Adam’s hand when prompted during the final quest and boss fight.

For this ending, it is crucial to note that you should not completely raise your relationship with Lily, as this will result in the third ending. Therefore, you should purposefully refrain from obtaining every item that increases Lily’s relationship bar to its maximum.

Could there be a better way for the ending to see Eve and Adam merging into one powerful being, with Eve retaining her appearance, voice, and mannerisms, but at the price of Lily’s life – a necessary sacrifice in order to save the world?

The character Adam from Stellar Blade — Shift Up

Adam has a terrible choice for Eve, but will you take his hand?

Return to the Colony Ending

To unlock the Return to the Colony ending, decline Adam’s offer and decline to hold his hand when given the chance. This will result in Eve facing the final boss and completing the mission without the additional power from Adam, but it will guarantee Lily’s survival. However, Adam will ultimately perish.

In this ending, it is not necessary to fully fill Lily’s relationship meter. Therefore, don’t feel pressured to locate every single document as Lily will always survive if Adam is rejected.

Despite the potential preference for sparing Lily’s life, the loss of Adam and the burden placed on Eve to make a difficult decision also adds a tragic element to this ending. Although the world is ultimately saved, it is not without sacrifice and heartache.

Concluding the Chapter: Making New Memories

The conclusion of The Making New Memories is incredibly heartwarming, as Lily ultimately survives the story and Adam continues to exist through Eve after the two merge into a powerful entity and defeat the final boss.

To obtain this ending, ensure that you gather all of the documents for Lily and increase her relationship bar to 100%. These documents are located throughout the world, so consider upgrading your Drone to make it simpler to locate them all.

The conclusion is similar to the initial one, as Eve and Adam will still combine into a single entity. The main distinction is that they will now be able to achieve this without causing Lily’s death.
