Goddess of Victory: NIKKE Unveils 2025 Roadmap – Rapi: Red Hood, Stellar Blade Collab & More!

Get ready for an exhilarating start to 2025 as Goddess of Victory: NIKKE prepares to unveil a slew of exciting updates. Shift Up has confirmed the return of fan-favorite events, with the launch of the highly anticipated SSR Rapi: Red Hood character and two major crossovers that will leave players eagerly anticipating what’s to come. These thrilling updates were all revealed during the game’s recent special Christmas livestream.

Rapi: Red Hood Joins the Fight in New Year’s Event

Beginning December 26, 2024, players will be able to experience the New Year Version Update, which includes over 100 recruitment chances. This update will be highlighted by the debut of SSR Rapi: Red Hood, a powerful new character awakened with the fierce abilities of the Red Hood. Rapi’s new storyline will be at the forefront of the “Cheers to the Past, Here’s to the New” event, running until January 16, 2025.

In this event, Rapi shares her personal journey, from her past of constant survival to meeting the player and seeking a brighter future. Alongside Rapi’s arrival, SSR Scarlet: Black Shadow returns to the banner with a new New Year’s skin for Naga.

A New Year’s Celebration with Exclusive Rewards

The celebration will include fresh costumes, including Naga’s Last Girlhood kimono skin, and the chance to recruit Scarlet: Black Shadow, a Wind unit known for her powerful Fleetly Fading Rocket Launcher. For those looking to add even more variety to their team, the event also brings 100+ recruitment opportunities, ensuring that players can strengthen their squads of Nikkes as they dive into 2025.

Evangelion Crossover Coming in February 2025

After the Rapi event, fans can look forward to a major crossover in February: NIKKE will team up with the iconic anime franchise, Neon Genesis Evangelion. Characters such as Asuka, Rei, Mari, and Misato will make their way into the game, bringing fresh SSR collaboration characters, including one that will be available for free. The event will also include exclusive outfits, including some free skins, a 3D event map, and an engaging mini-game that immerses players in the world of Evangelion.

Stellar Blade Crossover Tease

As if the Evangelion crossover wasn’t enough, Stellar Blade is also joining the NIKKE universe in a collaboration later in 2025. Created by Shift Up, the same studio behind NIKKE, Stellar Blade is a visually stunning action-adventure game that sold over a million copies in its first month. While specifics about the event are still under wraps, fans are excited to see how the distinct worlds and dynamic combat of both games will blend in this crossover.

Since its global release, Goddess of Victory: NIKKE has captivated players with its blend of emotional sci-fi storytelling, dynamic combat, and immersive character animations. With over 45 million downloads worldwide, the game continues to deliver thrilling updates, including intense boss battles and a robust team-building system.

The 2025 roadmap promises even more excitement with these crossovers and new characters. Whether you’re a long-time fan or a newcomer, there’s never been a better time to dive into NIKKE.
