Stellar Blade Complete Edition brings EVE’s full action adventure and both announced crossover DLC packs to Nintendo Switch 2 on 5 November 2026. If you missed the NieR:Automata or GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE collaborations on the earlier platforms, they’re included here rather than presented as separate launch purchases.
The package contains the full game, two paid crossover packs and a separate selection of Complete Edition bonuses. There are also three preorder early unlocks and four free Bayonetta outfits, which are not the same kind of bonus. Here’s exactly what belongs in each group.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: What comes with Complete Edition?
The package contains the main Stellar Blade game and content from Stellar Blade x NieR:Automata and Stellar Blade x GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE. Nintendo’s product page expressly identifies both DLC collaborations.
The main game follows EVE against the Naytiba in a single-player adventure. Nintendo Switch 2 supports handheld, tabletop and TV play. This is a native Switch 2 game sold physically and digitally for £54.99 in the UK.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: Does it include NieR:Automata DLC?
Yes. The NieR crossover content is included in Complete Edition. The collaboration previously brought themed cosmetic items and content inspired by Square Enix’s NieR:Automata universe.
Nintendo warns that certain included items are accessible only once you’ve progressed in the main story. A player starting for the first time shouldn’t expect to open every crossover reward before meeting the game’s progression conditions.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: Does it include NIKKE DLC?
Yes. The GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE collaboration is also listed as part of Complete Edition. It’s a separate crossover from NieR, and both are included in the same Switch 2 offering.
The NIKKE collaboration is included with the game, but you still need to progress through Stellar Blade’s story to reach some crossover activities. Owning Complete Edition gives you the content; it does not skip the relevant in-game progression.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: All Eight Included Bonuses
SHIFT UP’s Complete Edition bundle includes eight named bonuses, separate from the NieR and NIKKE crossover DLC. The cosmetic items are the Stargazer Suit for EVE, Stargazer Wear for Adam, Stargazer Coat for Lily, Half-Rim Glasses for EVE, Quadruple Rectangle Earrings for EVE and the Stargazer Pack for the Drone.
The remaining two bonuses are 2,000 SP EXP and 5,000 Gold. These are included with Complete Edition rather than locked behind the three-item preorder promotion. You can therefore buy the standard edition without losing the announced Stargazer bundle.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: Four Free Bayonetta Outfits
EVE receives four new Bayonetta-inspired outfits as a free collaboration arriving on 5 November at 3 PM GMT. The announced designs are Bayonetta, Jeanne, Nun and Black Tresses, an original fourth costume created by Stellar Blade director Kim Hyung-tae and shown at Tokyo Game Show 2026.
These four outfits are free for players on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and PC. They are not an extra paid DLC purchase, and the PS5 and PC versions receive the collaboration without requiring a Nintendo Switch 2 copy. The outfits are also separate from the three preorder early unlocks.
SHIFT UP has announced the costumes, platforms and release time, but the in-game acquisition steps are for the launch version. The outfit designs and availability are established, so the collection can be planned now without inventing a vendor, quest or shop price.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: What are the preorder bonuses?
Nintendo’s dedicated bonus page lists Classic Round Glasses, Ear Armour Earrings and Planet Diving Suit (White Edition) for EVE. They’re cosmetic extras rather than additional combat abilities.
Nintendo UK sets the preorder deadline at 15:59 CET on 5 November, which is 2:59 PM GMT in Britain. The three cosmetics are early unlocks, not permanent preorder-exclusive costumes. The game unlocks digitally at 3 PM GMT.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: Does every DLC reward unlock immediately?
No. Nintendo specifically says some included content becomes available after progressing through the main story. Ownership alone doesn’t place every costume or crossover activity in your inventory at the start.
The included NieR and NIKKE content is part of the edition even when some rewards are locked behind story milestones. When those activities become available, you can access them without buying the crossover packs separately.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: Are there Switch 2-only extras?
SHIFT UP is also selling a limited SteelBook with exclusive metallic key art through selected retailers. It’s a separate physical offer, not something included with every standard cartridge or digital purchase.
The physical edition contains the entire base game on the Switch 2 cartridge. It is not a game-key card and does not require a separate full-game download to play. Regional SteelBook listings may use a 6 November retail date, while the UK digital edition unlocks on 5 November at 3 PM GMT.
Stellar Blade Complete Edition: Storage, modes and save data
Nintendo UK currently lists 25.3 GB for the digital download. Handheld, tabletop and TV modes are supported, along with touchscreen features, HDR with compatible televisions and Nintendo Switch Online Save Data Cloud.
The free Switch 2 demo is available separately through the eShop. Nintendo’s Save Data Cloud feature covers Nintendo saves; it isn’t a PS5-to-Switch 2 transfer feature.
