The wait is over. The curtain rises on the most consequential chapter yet.
Level Infinite and developer SHIFT UP pulled back the curtain during an official livestream on 24 October, revealing a sweeping 4th Anniversary Update for GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE — launching worldwide Thursday, 29 October 2026. This isn’t just another milestone; it’s a turning point where the Ark’s long journey meets its destiny, humanity’s fate hangs in the balance, and the truth about the Queen finally comes into focus.
The Story Reaches Its Defining Moment
The update delivers Chapters 49 and 50 of the main story — the conclusion of the Ark saga and the opening of the Third Ground Recapture Operation. Led by familiar faces including Rapi, Anis, and Neon, the NIKKEs face the colossal, statue?form Queen in what promises to be the most decisive battle in the game’s history.
Running alongside it is “MARIA?n” — a full?voiced anniversary story event that digs deep into Marian’s past, unravelling secrets buried within research facilities and bringing her relationship with the Commander to a searing climax.
Three Legends, Reborn for the Fight
Three pivotal NIKKEs step forward in powerful new forms:
| Character | Role | How to Obtain |
