Plan to Clean the Earth Walkthrough (Reset the Claw Crane’s Control System)

April 29, 2024

Plan to Clean the Earth is a side quest in Stellar Blade that players will receive as they approach the Scrap Yard in the northern Wasteland. While it is not mandatory that fans complete this quest, those that do will gain access to a vendor that sells Weapon Cores, Tumbler Expansion Modules, and other valuable items. For those players who are interested in unlocking that vendor, this complete walkthrough of Stellar Blade‘s Plan to Clean the Earth side quest is here to help.

Stellar Blade: Plan to Clean the Earth Walkthrough

Locate the Source of the Distress Signal

After initiating Plan to Clean the Earth, Stellar Blade players should follow the in-game waypoint into the Scrap Yard and speak with D1G-g2r, a small drone that is trapped beneath a car. This conversation will reveal that the drone can be freed by interacting with the “Ticker, Buzzer, and Clunker,” and fans must address those objects in the specified order.

Starting at D1G-g2r’s position, players should go left and push the large yellow box that they encounter toward the wall. Fans should then climb on the box, grab on to the closest handhold, and cross the gap to reach a platform on the right. A large machine (the “Ticker”) sits atop that platform, and Stellar Blade‘s Eve should interact with its panel.

Players should now head back across the gap, go left, and push a second yellow box forward. Fans should then get on top of the box, jump through the opening in the railing, and go to the right side of the platform. Here, players will find a small trash-filled cart, and they should push it onto the nearby pressure plate.

Activating the plate will cause a nearby gate to descend, and players should push a third yellow box through the new opening. Fans of action-adventure video games can then climb on the box, jump to the higher platform, and interact with the panel to send power to the “Buzzer.”

Players should now return to the ground and continue forward to find two trash-filled carts and two pressure plates. Pacing the carts atop the plates will cause a large metal gate to lower, and fans should pass through the opening, grab the yellow box that is on the other side, and push it back to the side with the trash-filled carts. Fans should then push the box to the left and use it to reach a ladder, which leads directly to a lever that will activate the “Clunker.”

Talk to D1G-g2r

Interacting with the Clunker’s lever will trigger a short cutscene in which D1G-g2r is freed. Players must then simply return to the drone’s preliminary position and speak with it. This conversation will lead to the completion of the Plan to Clean the Earth side quest, and fans can start purchasing valuable Stellar Blade upgrade materials from D1G-g2r immediately thereafter.
