Games like Stellar Blade offer a “point of no return.” These are usually twists in the plot that require the player’s full attention until a particular section of the story is wrapped up. Most of the time, there is only one “point of no return” in a game. This usually comes right before the climax. It is there to let you finish your incomplete missions and upgrades before the big final battle. However, Stellar Blade offers two of these no-return points.

Once you have concluded the Abyss Levoire quest and returned with a Hyper Cell to Orcal, it will kick off the Orcal’s Testimony quest. This is where players are supposed to head to Spire 4, where the Orbit Elevator is situated. First, you will have to talk to Adam at the Safehouse.

Talking to him will lock you out of all side quests, and Xion collectibles and requests. Don’t worry, though, once you have completed your objective on Spire 4, you will be able to return to your prior job of gathering collectibles and upgrading Eve.

This time around, the point of no return is final. It happens when players take up the main quest called Burning Xion. You will eventually have to fight Elder Naytiba but before the final boss battle, you must complete all your leftover missions.

We say this because once you have finished the game, Stellar Blade will put you back in the world after this point of no return. This means that you will be able to return to any location you want except for Xion. So, take your time to fully explore every corner, mission, and collectible in Xion before embarking on your final journey.
