Stellar Blade Complete Edition Switch 2 Release Date Confirmed: November 5 Pre-Orders Live
Shift Up’s action title Stellar Blade is officially coming to Nintendo Switch 2.
During a recent Nintendo Direct, the developer announced that Stellar Blade: Complete Edition will release on Switch 2 on 5th November, with digital pre-orders available now through the Switch eShop.
The Complete Edition will be priced at £54.99 / $59.99 for the standard release, according to the announcement.
For players who prefer a boxed copy, Shift Up confirmed the physical edition for Switch 2 is a full on-cartridge release rather than a Game-Key Card.
A premium Panax steelbook edition is also available for pre-order, listed at £69.99 / $69.99.
All pre-orders include bonus cosmetic items for the game’s protagonist, EVE, the publisher noted.
The Switch 2 edition packages the base game along with previously released post-launch content under the Complete Edition designation.
Bayonetta collaboration teased
The release date trailer revealed a crossover element: Stellar Blade: Complete Edition will include four Bayonetta-themed outfits.
Shift Up showcased three of those costumes—Bayonetta, Nun and Jeanne—and confirmed a fourth suit will be announced at a later date.
In plain terms, the developer identified a multi-suit Bayonetta collaboration but is keeping one costume undisclosed for now.
Background and platform context
Stellar Blade originally launched on PlayStation 5 earlier in 2024.
The Switch 2 release represents the title’s first appearance on Nintendo hardware, bringing Shift Up’s cinematic combat and character-driven narrative to Nintendo’s next-generation handheld-home hybrid.
What to expect and where to buy
Digital pre-orders are live on the Switch eShop, with standard and steelbook physical editions available through retail partners and Panax respectively.
Pricing and pre-order bonuses are confirmed by the developer and publisher in the Direct trailer and accompanying release notes.
With 5th November now confirmed, Nintendo fans can plan for one of the higher-profile third-party ports to arrive on Switch 2 later this year, including the promised Bayonetta crossover content and full on-cartridge physical options.
