In terms of the Goddess of Victory: Nikkle content, check out the rundown below.

According to Shifft Up, during this special team-up, the characters EVE, Raven, and Lily from Stellar Blade will be making their appearance in NIKKE. Players will embark on a fresh storyline titled ‘MEMORIES TELLER’, which takes place within an old, submerged city. Alongside ROM, a transport robot, and the Counters team, players will aim to reveal hidden truths and safeguard the artistic past of humanity.

In addition to the narrative content, the collaboration features:
  • Special costumes for Eve, Raven, and NIKKE’s own Scarlet.
  • New boss challenges, new mini-game, and events with exclusive rewards.

As a fan, I want to set your expectations right: With such a wide-ranging patch, there might be some elements that inadvertently get affected, necessitating additional updates to rectify the issues.

Although Stellar Blade’s latest update may mark its conclusion, a sequel is on the horizon with a planned release date before the end of 2027.
