What makes GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE unique is the dual strategies of being a shooter built around a collectible card game. The game is easy to play on the go, with intuitive controls and a variety of gameplay styles, including puzzle solving and co-op battles.
The combination of real-time combat and strategy makes the game accessible while also retaining a level of challenge for more tactical commanders. Collecting cards will grant you access to new powerful weapons and characters. There are six weapon types, from assault rifles to rocket launchers and sniper rifles, each with its strengths and weaknesses. Taking the strategy further are the character types (explosive, support, or defensive) to consider when forming your squad as commander

The contrast of delicate anime art style with a hardcore sci-fi setting offers a new experience for players. The third-person perspective, simple user interface design and one-hand controls give the game a unique feel and make NIKKE extremely easy to pick up and play. While the game starts easily enough with an excellent introductory tutorial, giant enemies and epic boss battles require strategic thinking, squad coordination and preparation.

So what’s new?
In celebration of Christmas, developer Level Infinite has released its latest update for the game, called “Miracle Snow.” Winter is here, and the Christmas season brings new characters, rewards, gameplay events, a new story and more. The latest members to join the squad are Rupee, an electric assault rifle-wielding shopaholic who wants to forget about war with help from a little retail therapy, and Neve, a sniper with a love of polar bears, only available through this limited time event.
The story begins with a Christmas miracle. N102, a NIKKE operative whose memory typically resets every morning, somehow now remembers everything. As you begin helping N102 create new memories, she decides she wants to meet her mother from when she was still human. As you can imagine, this sets the stage for an exciting story with a few twists.
The Miracle Snow event began on December 8th and will run until December 28th. Level Infinite is also giving away prizes as part of their #FirstChristmaswithNikke campaign encouraging players to share content related to the game online.
