Eidos 9 Overview
Eidos 9 is an optional area in Stellar Blade, accessible only when working towards the “Making New Memories” ending. To unlock this region, players must increase Lily’s bond to 100%. This is achieved by completing Side Missions and gathering intel for the Data Bank. Once Lily’s bond is maxed out, she will request a visit to Eidos 9 before proceeding to Spire 4 at the conclusion of Orcal’s Testimony. It is crucial to note that continuing the main story past this point will trigger a Point of No Return, preventing further exploration of Xion and potentially failing any uncompleted content.
Within Eidos 9, players can find various collectibles that contribute to the Data Bank, including Memory Sticks and Documents. These entries provide deeper insights into the game’s lore and characters.
Eidos 9 Memory Sticks
Memory Sticks in Stellar Blade are collectible items found on the corpses of the deceased. They share memories, enriching the game’s mythos. Below are the known Memory Stick locations in Eidos 9:
Fallen Overpass
The Fallen Overpass area contains two Memory Sticks:
- Legionnaire 158’s Memory: This Memory Stick is located on the initial stretch of road in the Fallen Overpass. As you progress down this road, look to your right. The body containing the Memory Stick will be leaning against a car.
- Legionnaire 196’s Report: After defeating the first Cocoon in its arena, proceed to the ruined building adjacent to where the Cocoon was nesting. Drop down into the corridor within this building. Navigate through the Cricket Slashers, and you will find the body with the Memory Stick next to a hole in the wall.
Sector 2
Sector 2 in Eidos 9 holds five Memory Sticks. One confirmed location is:
- Legionnaire 192’s Memory: Upon reaching the camp at the beginning of Sector 2, turn right. Follow the stretch of highway until you reach the top of the adjacent building to locate this Memory Stick.
Eidos 9 Documents
Documents are another type of Data Bank entry in Stellar Blade, offering additional lore and information. While the interactive map functionality allows tracking of Documents, specific details for Eidos 9 Documents are not yet fully detailed in available sources. However, Design Patterns, which are a type of document, have specific locations within Eidos 9:
- Design Pattern: Planet Diving Suit (6th): After defeating the second Cocoon, dive into the water. Swim towards the building that has large beams around its perimeter. Be aware that you will take damage in the water, but there should be sufficient time to reach the building. Climb up the yellow grips on the western side of the wall, then drop through the roof. Inside, behind the door, you will find a red box containing the blueprint for the Planet Diving Suit (6th).
- Design Pattern: Punk Top: After exiting the Parking Tower, which features a large “Carwash” sign, utilize the yellow handholds to move as far left as possible. You will observe a mesh platform extending outwards. Drop down onto this platform and quickly use a double jump to land on it. Follow the path around to an island-like area where a red box containing the Punk Top blueprint awaits.
- Design Pattern: Motivation: While following the objective markers leading to Lily’s Atelier, you will need to use a red slide. Ride this slide down to an area where you will encounter a Dozer and a Hydra. Defeat both enemies. Then, look on the roof of the building opposite where you disembarked from the slide. The Motivation blueprint will be found in a red box there.
