There are moments in Stellar Blade when you can’t reach a chest or objective with a normal jump. These instances are specifically designed for the Stellar Blade double jump ability.

Double jump is a nifty ability that opens up a whole new world of exploration and combat options. But how do you get your hands on it?

The good news is that the double jump isn’t hidden behind a complex side quest or locked away with a ton of skill points. It’s a story-related upgrade, so you’ll get it naturally as you progress through the main campaign. There are two ways to unlock the double jump:

The first way to unlock the double jump ability is by doing the Altess Levoire mission. The mission area throws challenges with sections where you can only rely on your drone for ranged attacks.

We recommend going in prepared for some puzzles and enemy encounters. You will also face a boss fight after winning which you will head back to Xion.

Once you are back in Xion, make your way to the Safehouse. Inside, visit Lily. A cutscene will trigger, and Lily will present you with the Alpha Locator Signal.

As part of the upgrade process, she’ll give your exosuit a boost, granting you the double jump ability.

The second way to unlock the double jump is by doing the Angel of Death side quest. This mission will trigger the same cutscene you experience in the main quest mission, unlocking the double jump ability along the way.

You can use the double jump instinctively. Once you’ve made your initial jump, press the jump button again mid-air (X by default) to initiate the second jump. You can even delay the second jump a bit to reach those extra-high places or soften a fall.

You can use the Stellar Blade double jump ability to explore more places. This means you can reach places where you have missed exploring previously. You can also use the double jump to dodge and offer more variety to your attack in the game.
