Goddess of Victory: Nikke announces second Evangelion collaboration ahead of Stellar Blade crossover in June
- Goddess of Victory: Nikke’s latest collaboration will get underway on February 20th
- It will feature characters and a storyline based on beloved anime Evangelion
- Level Infinite also revealed the Stellar Blade crossover will take place in June
Apparently, it was so good that they had to do it twice. Today, Level Infinite has announced that Goddess of Victory: Nikke will host its second collaboration with the popular anime series Evangelion on February 20th. From it, we can expect new storylines and characters, so pretty much the standard fare for a gacha meets anime team-up.
Of course, I don’t mean to sound overly cynical. It’s just what we’ve come to expect from these things. The new storyline will, naturally, take place in the Evangelion world and introduce characters like WILLE, Rei Ayanami (Tentative Name), and Sakura, who you can see in the trailer below.
Aside from these new characters, some are also set to return from the previous collaboration. That’s right! If you missed out on Asuka Shikinami Langley, Rei Ayanami, and Mari Makinami Illustrious, now you’ll get another chance. To round out the event, you can look forward to exclusive character outfits, free skins, a 3D event map and a mini-game.
A stellar collaboration
But that’s not all the collaboration news we have for you today. Oh, no. There’s more. Level Infinite also revealed that the previously announced Stellar Blade crossover will take place in June. And that’s pretty much it. Any more details on the matter are firmly under wraps, but we’ll let you know as soon as we learn anything new.
Considering it’s a mere two years old, Goddess of Victory: Nikke has already pulled in some big names for its crossovers. I have mixed feelings about them, personally. While I suspect most developers would prefer their games to stand on their own two feet, these collaborations are probably great for pulling in new players. Even the king of the genre Genshin Impact has succumbed to that particular temptation at least once.
Goddess of Victory: Nikke is available on the App Store and Google Play, where it’s free-to-play with in-app purchases. You can download it for your preferred platform using the buttons below.
