GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE is a tactical shooter set in a science-fiction universe with quality anime graphics. In this gacha RPG, play as a young commander straight out of the academy, recruit Nikkes and compose the best team to resist the invasion of the Rapture robots.
Each character has her own fighting style depending on her role, her abilities and the firearm used (assault rifle, machine gun, shotgun, sniper or rocket launcher). The gameplay alternates between dialogue phases in visual novel, top-down map movements and combat phases, where you have to use strategy to choose the best fighters among a selection of characters with various designs.

There's no denying that Nikke is a quality game, thanks in particular to its immersive gameplay and intuitive, easy-to-learn controls. Here, there's no turn-based combat like other gachas on Android and iOS, but rather a shooting game where you have to use strategy and skill to target your opponents. Level Infinite, the studio behind the game and a branch of Tencent, drew inspiration from the Gears of War series to create the gameplay of Goddess of Victory Nikke.
The game's story is also captivating and sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. Set in a post-apocalyptic future, Goddess of Victory Nikke takes you to the heart of a ruined world where the bloodthirsty mechanical creatures of Rapture have taken control. Faced with this global catastrophe, humanity is powerless to react, as worldly technologies have no effect on the monsters.
In Nikke, you play the role of a commander whose objective is to assemble the best possible team, the Nikkes, to defeat the killer robots.
The main reason Level Infinite's game is so popular is the variety of characters (the Nikkes) you can collect. Each of them, beings crafted from all of humanity's combined technological knowledge, has specific skills and idiosyncrasies, making the gameplay unique depending on the team used.
Goddess of Victory Nikke's popularity is also due to the care taken with the game as a whole. The quality of the gameplay is top-notch, the graphics are flawless and the game's OST is highly enjoyable.
Proof of its popularity is that, in the month of its release, the game generated over $70 million in sales, notably in Japan, South Korea and the United States. A year after its release, the game has grossed over $400 million, with 25 million downloads on mobile.
Goddess of Victory Nikke has been available on Android and iOS since November 4, 2022. It will be released on PC on February 15, 2023. However, the game is still not available on home consoles, and Level Infinite has so far never said anything about a potential release on PlayStation, Xbox or Switch.
