Stellar Blade – How To Access The Forbidden Area

There are many locations that you get to visit in Stellar Blade. One location can be reached as you’re free-roaming in the Wastelands, although nothing seems to be there. Well, you’re going to be in for a treat. Here’s our guide on how to access the Wasteland Forbidden Area in Stellar Blade.

How to access the Wasteland Forbidden Area in Stellar Blade

The Forbidden Area is in the eastern part of the Wasteland. There’s a ruined building nearby, which even has a Beta Core upgrade. However, looking to your left, you should see a rope that lets you descend down a narrow pathway. Be careful when traversing this section, as there’s a steep drop and Eve could die from fall damage.

If you visit this place early in the campaign, you won’t be able to find anything save for a Cryo the Clear collectible. It’s as though you wasted your trip.

The Life of Scavengers quest

However, if you want to find out what’s in the Forbidden Area in Stellar Blade, you just need to start a quest called Life of the Scavengers. Here’s a quick summary:

• The quest comes from Cyrus, the masked man on the steps leading to Enya’s and Su’s bar in Xion.
• The quest became available in our campaign when we finished the main objectives in the Wasteland’s Altess Levore area.
• Note that we’re unable to confirm if other side quests are prerequisites.

The Brute Naytiba and the Sporty Yellow outfit

In any case, with the quest active, make your way back down the pit. When you approach the metal gates, the Brute boss will emerge. Watch out for notable attacks like hammering blows, leaping smashes, and magma explosions.

Upon defeating the Brute, you may loot the items in the tunnel. This includes:

• Perfect Combat Gear – Increases your attack power if HP is high.
• Damaged Weapon Core – You can exchange two of these with D1G-g2r to receive an actual Weapon Core. It can then be used to boost Eve’s attack power permanently.
• Sporty Yellow – This is one of Eve’s outfits.
• Tommy’s Testament – This data slate contains a passcode for Tommy’s locker in Xion.

Tommy’s locker

Return to Xion and go to the place with the Sisters Junk shop. Off to the side, you’ll see a metal container. Enter the passcode from Tommy’s data slate to unlock it. The chest contains several upgrade materials, including some Extreme Nano Elements.

This is how you unlock the Forbidden Area in Stellar Blade. If you’re looking for hidden areas that you can access as you progress through the campaign, you probably want to check out how to make the flood waters recede in Eidos 7.
