The long-awaited Stellar Blade collaboration is finally happening in Goddess of Victory: NIKKE, and it's kicking off with a whole lot of style. First teased back in May 2024 during NIKKE’s 1.5-year anniversary, the crossover has officially been detailed—and it's looking like a treat for fans of both titles.
A dedicated livestream aired on June 7, 2025, hosted by Shift Up and Level Infinite, showing off all the crossover content coming to both games.
What’s Coming to Goddess of Victory: NIKKE
Storyline: A brand-new arc titled Memories Teller drops Eve, Lily, and Raven from Stellar Blade into the NIKKE universe. Players will get to collect cans, jump into combat skirmishes, and experience a fully integrated narrative.
Gameplay: A slick 3D minigame mimics Stellar Blade’s stylish action combat—yep, fast moves and flashy combos are on the table. There’s also new boss content and a map system to sink your teeth into.
Exclusive Costumes: Expect fanservice-heavy skins like EVE’s Skin Suit, Neurolink Suit, and Raven’s Midsummer Alice, Planet Diving Suit. These will be available through gacha and Battle Pass systems.
Launch Date: The NIKKE side of the event goes live on June 12 for both PC and mobile players.
Anime Expo Presence: Heading to Anime Expo 2025 in LA? NIKKE’s booth will feature the game’s first official merch area, filled with collectibles and exclusive items.
What’s Coming to Stellar Blade
DLC Launch: The NIKKE crossover DLC drops on June 11, alongside the long-awaited PC release and Complete Edition for PS5 and PC.
New Outfits: Eve’s wardrobe expands with NIKKE-inspired looks, including designs based on Rapi, Scarlet, Alice, Anis, and Dorothy. Think pink bodysuits, cat-ear headsets, and other iconic styles from the NIKKE universe.
Boss Fight: Face off against Scarlet in a flashy new boss battle titled “A Duel in the Moonlight”. Beat her, and you’ll unlock a new costume, hairstyle, and even a song.
Minigames:
Shooting Range: Inspired by NIKKE’s arcade shooter style, this minigame brings cover-based gunplay into Stellar Blade.
Searching Lost Relics: Players search for NIKKE characters’ favorite items—like Rapi’s beret or Alice’s stuffed rabbit—guided by a robot dog named Volt (or Bolt, depending on your localization).
Special Quest: “Catch Me If You Can” puts you on Dorothy’s trail. Known for her mischievous streak in NIKKE, she appears in a fan-favorite outfit, now featured thanks to popular demand.
New Shop: Yep, Volt runs a themed shop packed with NIKKE-inspired cosmetics and gear.
Collectibles: Fish for six NIKKE-themed items (Poli, Rapunzel, Laplace, Snow White, Cassette tape, Neon's Glasses), unlock dolls, stickers, and more.
Bonus Unlock: Play the Complete Edition for at least two hours and score a special chest in Xion, unlocking the Racer’s High outfit for Scarlet.
Free PS5 Update: PS5 players get the new boss fight and 25 costumes for free—keeping parity with PC users.
Pricing and Extras
The DLC is expected to be similarly priced to the NieR: Automata crossover (around $9.99), though with possibly even more content this time. Official pricing is still under wraps.
NIKKE’s content remains free-to-play, though as always, expect optional gacha elements and paid cosmetics.
Why This Collab Works
Both games thrive in sci-fi, dystopian worlds filled with sleek heroines and high-stakes alien battles, so this two-way collab makes perfect thematic sense.
With over 45 million downloads worldwide, Goddess of Victory: NIKKE continues to expand its reach with content-rich updates and high-profile crossovers like this one. And with Stellar Blade creator Hyung-tae Kim calling both games “his children,” expect nothing short of excellence in this ambitious fusion.
