Stellar Bladeoffers a diverse experience, blending linear progression with opportunities for exploration. While the main storyline drives the action forward, players have the freedom to roam certain regions, acquiring new gear for Eve, earning SP to unlock skills, and encountering various characters along the way. Of course, epic boss fights are a central feature.

Although combat is the primary focus, Stellar Blade also presents side quests that don’t always involve battling Naytiba. Instead, they may task you with locating specific items or delivering them to their rightful owners. In the midst of a post-apocalyptic world, encountering quests like the early one requiring you to find a cat can be a bit unexpected.

How To Find The Cat

Once you speak to Orcal, a range of opportunities opens up, allowing you to interact with various characters and embark on quests. One way to discover side quests isthrough the Bulletin Board located to the east of the town.

This board continually updates with new quests based on two factors: completing existing quests and progressing through the storyline.

One of the earliest quests available is “Find the Cat,” a rather peculiar request that surprises even Eve. You’ll receivea marker directing you to the northern part of town, so head in that direction.
