Okay, Stellar Blade dropped and we’re all obsessed. But I gotta ask – is shelling out the extra cash for the Deluxe Edition worth it? I mean, that Stargazer Suit for Eve is fire, but is it enough to justify the price jump? Let’s break it down.
Wait, It Takes How Long to Get My Deluxe Stuff?!
Here’s the thing that threw me off: you don’t get your Deluxe Edition goodies right away in Stellar Blade. You gotta hustle through the game a bit before they unlock.
See, you have to take down the fourth boss (that Gigas dude) and then make the trek with Adam and Lily over to Xion, this scrappy human outpost. Only after you arrive and watch the cutscene will you find a small loot box waiting on the bridge. Finally, right? Hit that L2 button and boom – that’s when you get your Deluxe Edition rewards.
Okay, So What’s in the Deluxe Edition Stash?
Here’s the full rundown:
- Stargazer Suit for Eve: Seriously, makes Eve look like a total badass
- Half-rim Glasses for Eve: A little more subtle, but still cool
- Quadruple Rectangle Earrings for Eve: Adds a bit of stylish bling
- Stargazer Wear for Adam and Lily: Gotta give some love to the squad!
- Stargazer Pack for the Drone: Not sure what this does, gotta check it out…
- 2,000 SP EXP: Nice boost to upgrade Eve’s skills
- 5,000 Gold in-game currency: Can never have too much cash, right?
The Verdict: Looks vs. Gameplay
Let’s be real, all the cosmetics in the Deluxe Edition are purely for looks. They don’t make you stronger. But the gold and SP EXP sweeten the deal, especially early in the game.
So, if you’re the type who loves customizing your character’s appearance, and you want a little leg-up in those first few hours, the Deluxe Edition upgrade might be worth considering. Otherwise, you can rock the base game and still have a blast.
