Goddess of Victory: Nikke 4th Anniversary Update Adds Marian: Queen, Scarlet

Level Infinite and Shift Up announced the fourth-anniversary update for Goddess of Victory: Nikke, launching worldwide on October 29, 2026. 

The anniversary introduces Marian: Queen, a new version of Marian whose story involves confronting the Space Queen. She is joined by Scarlet: Goddeath, an upgraded form of Hongryeon featuring Eden-developed enhancements and a dark-matter-infused sword.

Players can also obtain Rapunzel: Sanctuary, a new SSR support character, for free. The anniversary events will offer up to four copies.

The main story continues with Chapters 49 and 50, focusing on the Third Surface Recapture War and concluding the Underground Ark storyline. A separate event titled Maria-n follows Marian.

The update also includes Tracing the Stars × Stellar Blade, a 22-track music collaboration featuring four free songs, additional customization options, and a special character addition. Another event, Fading Affection, is a choice-driven visual novel centered on fragmented memories and alternate outcomes.

Four new costumes are planned, including Marian: Queen’s wedding dress outfit, Last Affection, and Snow White: Heavy Arms’ Lacrimosa costume. Additional outfits for Neon and Nayuta will be available through battle passes.

Anniversary rewards include up to 259 free recruitment attempts and character selection boxes featuring Rapunzel: Sanctuary, Chime, Rapunzel: Pure Grace, and Snow White: Innocent Days. The update will also introduce full Spanish text localization.

Nikke will appear on a digital billboard at One Times Square in New York City on October 29. An anniversary collaboration at Animate Los Angeles will run from October 31 through November 14, featuring exclusive merchandise, store decorations, and community activities.
