Stellar Blade x Nier Automata DLC: All Stellar Tear locations

The Stellar Blade x Nier Automata DLC tasks players with collecting Stellar Tears to unlock the new 2B outfits, but finding them can be incredibly tricky.

Stellar Tears are a new collectible that was added alongside the Stellar Blade x Nier Automata DLC, and players need to collect them if they wish to get hold of the new Nier-themed outfits. Amongst them are cosmetics that transform Eve into 2B and A2. There are even cosmetics for Adam and Lily, Eve’s two companions.

Just like Stellar Blade’s cans, finding Stellar Tears can be incredibly tricky. Especially given players are only given small picture-based clues to go off of. Fortunately, our handy hub has uncovered the locations for 15 Stellar Tears so that you can dress up as the beloved android as quickly as possible.

How to get Nier Automata outfits in Stellar Blade

Shift Up

Getting your hands on the 2B outfit can take some time in Stellar Blade.

To get the four Nier Automata x Stellar Blade crossover outfits, you’ll first need to purchase the DLC from the PS Store. It’s important to note that, unlike the free photo mode update, the Nier crossover content will cost you $9.99. 

Once you have purchased the DLC, you must find Emil – Nier Automata’s mysterious merchant. Emil’s Shop features all the Nier Automata outfits, which can be purchased using the new Stellar Tears collectible. 

Emil location in Stellar Blade

Dexerto

Emil sells all kinds of Nier Automata-themed gear.

Emil is located in both the Wasteland and Great Desert. However, we recommend traveling to the Wasteland and teleporting to the Junkyard supply camp. Once you’ve teleported to the Junkyard, rest using the nearby chair, and head towards the red car buried in the ground. 

Emil will quickly appear and you’ll need to shoot his scooter with your gun. A few well-aimed shots will stop the mysterious merchant dead in his tracks. With the scooter immobilized, head over to Emil and hit the R2 button to talk to him. 

If you miss your shots and Emil drives away, you can simply teleport back to the Junkyard supply camp and try again. You can also force Emil to spawn by resting at the Tetrapod in the Great Desert, you’ll find him driving along the dunes. 

All Stellar Tear locations

There are a total of 15 Stellar Tears that can be found in Stellar Blade, with eight located in the Wasteland and seven in the Great Desert. 

Wasteland Stellar Tear locations

The third Stellar Tear is located in the Wasteland Cave, which is located directly south of the Solar Tower. Teleport to the Solar Tower Entrance camp, and head directly north up the path past the Naytiba.

The cave’s entrance is denoted by the trees outside, so head inside the cave and follow the path. You’ll see the Stellar Tear on the rocky ledge past the lagoon, so simply swim through the water and clamber up the rocks to reach it.

Either kill or run past the Naytiba and then climb up the rocky ledges (marked with yellow paint). Once you get to the top, run across the first wooden bridge. There are a lot of Naytiba here, so be prepared to kill them all or make a beeline across the bridge on the right.  

After crossing the second bridge, simply follow the path until you reach the very end to get the Stellar Tear. If you’re in combat mode, you’ll need to wait until Eve puts away her sword to pick up the Tear.

Stellar Tear#AD2489J

The fifth Stellar Tear is located on top of a building with blue crates, directly west of the Oasis. To get onto the building, you’ll need to make your way around the ruins until you see a yellow bus (the one with the pink arrow light above it).

Stellar Tear#AM6131L
