Route steps
Do not run the Great Desert like a single straight line. Unlock camps, learn the region landmarks, and split the sweep into small loops so missed cans are easier to diagnose later.
2. Start with the direct answer
This Collectibles article is designed for players who need the blocker solved first, not a slow recap of the whole game. The short answer is: Great Desert has 16 cans. Treat it as the largest can sweep: unlock camp anchors first, clear cans by landmark loop, verify progress at the Xion vending machine, then use the all-cans page only for final 49-can reward tracking. Use that answer immediately if you are standing at the objective, door, boss arena, reward menu, or collectible route. Then keep reading only when you need the surrounding timing, version note, screenshot proof, or cleanup order. This keeps the page useful on a second monitor or phone while the game is open.
3. Before you start the Great Desert can sweep
Do not run the Great Desert like a single straight line. Unlock camps, learn the region landmarks, and split the sweep into small loops so missed cans are easier to diagnose later. The route table exists because most Stellar Blade mistakes happen when the answer is separated from timing. Start with "Activate nearby camps" at "Before hunting the 16-can batch" and confirm the expected result: "Desert can loops have anchors." Do not skip the note column on later steps, because version labels, quest state, and revisit timing often explain why a correct answer does not trigger yet.
4. Use the video frames as visual proof
The guide turns long video material into short visual checkpoints. The first frame to compare is "Great Desert open-zone can route" from "How to Find All Great Desert Cans Location - Stellar Blade.mp4" around 00:01:18. The next useful frame is "Great Desert can landmark check", which helps confirm the follow-up objective, menu state, landmark, or reward screen. Instead of scrubbing through an entire walkthrough, match the screenshot, read the nearby note, and jump back into the game.
