Goddess of Victory: NIKKE – Arcane Archive Update Brings New SSR, Story Event, and PvP Enhancements

SHIFT UP and Level Infinite return with a major content drop for Goddess of Victory: NIKKE, as the Arcane Archive update goes live following maintenance on May 15, 2025. This packed update introduces a new SSR character, a fresh story-driven event, and several system improvements that promise to enrich both PvE and PvP experiences.

🧿 New SSR Character: Arcana

Joining the battlefield is SSR Arcana, a Supporter-class Nikke from Elysion. Arcana specializes in empowering her allies based on how quickly a Full Burst ends—the shorter the burst, the stronger the team buff. This makes her a top-tier addition for burst-oriented compositions.

• Weapon: Rocket Launcher “Fortune Teller”
• Element: Electric
• Availability: Through Special Recruit from May 15 to May 29, 2025, using Gems or Advanced Recruit Vouchers

📖 Arcane Archive Story Event

The featured event, ARCANE ARCHIVE, follows Arcana as she tries to recover her lost memories after being delivered to the Commander by Phantom. Players can complete event stages to earn currency and exchange it in the Event Shop for Recruit Vouchers, upgrade materials, and more.

Also returning is the Challenge Stage mode, offering tougher enemies and high-value development rewards.
