July 25 Update Patch Notes

July 25 Update Patch Notes

As a long-time fan of GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE, I’m thrilled to see the new updates coming our way! With my years of experience in the game, I can’t help but feel excited about the addition of Sector 22 and EX-08. These new Lost Sectors are sure to bring fresh challenges and rewards for us players.


On July 25, we’ll roll out some exciting improvements. These include an enhancement of the main chapters and the much anticipated return of Anis: Sparkling Summer!

Commanders,

On July 25, 2024, I’ll unfortunately have to step away from my role as your trusted game server. I know, it’s a bummer, but I need some downtime for maintenance and updates. I promise these improvements will make our gaming experience even better in the long run. Unfortunately, this means you won’t be able to jump into the game during this time. I truly apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. Let’s look forward to an enhanced adventure once I’m back online!

Based on my personal experience as a long-time user of this software, I strongly advise you not to overlook this update notice. As someone who has seen the benefits of keeping applications up-to-date, I can assure you that downloading the latest version from the App Store or Google Play Store is worth your time. With my device constantly running low on storage space due to various apps and media files, ensuring at least 5 GB is available before updating is a crucial step I’ve learned through experience.

Please do not close the game during the resource download process, in case the client update fails.

Expected maintenance duration: 11:00:00 – 18:00:00, July 25, 2024 (UTC +9)

The actual maintenance duration may vary.

Major Updates:

1. New Characters

1.1 SSR Ein

At M.M.R. Vocational School, there’s a new student named SSR Ein, who is a freshman and harbors a strong desire to be Rushae’s sole fashion designer. He decides to apply for Special Recruit.

Ein is an Attacker who uses Near Feathers to deal True Damage.

As more Near Feathers are present, her attack speed grows faster. By using her Burst Ability, she can bring forth a multitude of Near Feathers for powerful, explosive assaults.

– Class: Attacker

– Weapon: Young Punk (SR)

– Code: Electric

– Manufacturer: Missilis

The Special Recruit program will run from the conclusion of the July 25, 2024 maintenance up until 4:59:59 on August 8, 2024 in UTC+9 time zone.

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Special Recruit

* Recruit Rules:

In Special Recruit, you have the option to employ Gems, which come in both free and paid versions, or make use of Advanced Recruit Vouchers for your hiring needs. Regular Recruit Vouchers are not accepted in this case.

In Special Recruit, there’s a 4% probability of obtaining an SSR Nikke, while the chance for an SSR Ein is 2%.

③ You can get Gold Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Special Recruit.

④ You can exchange 200 Gold Mileage Tickets for Ein in the Mileage Shop.

⑤ When Special Recruit ends, unused Gold Mileage Tickets will not disappear.

After the update following the end of Special Recruit, Ein can be obtained in Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, and by using Mold items. However, Ein will not be accessible in New Commander Special Recruit or in the Ordinary Recruit tutorial.

1.2 SSR Anis: Sparkling Summer

SSR Anis: Sparkling Summer makes a return in this scorching summer!

As a gamer, I’m excited to announce that Anis, the sparkling summer character, is once again ready for recruitment at the beach in her swimsuit.

Anis’s character, Sparkling Summer, gains power by supporting Electric Code Nikkes during their assaults.

When her powerful ability, named Sparkling Wave, is activated, it deals greater damage if the opponent is of the Water Code element.

– Class: Supporter

– Weapon: Libertine Aqua (SG)

– Code: Electric

– Manufacturer: Tetra Line

The recruitment period will last from the conclusion of the July 25, 2024 maintenance until August 15, 2024 at 4:59:59 UTC+9 in the evening.

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Limited-Time Recruitment

* Recruit Rules:

In the Special Recruit process, you have the option to employ Gems, which can be free or paid, instead of using Ordinary Recruit Vouchers. Alternatively, Advanced Recruit Vouchers may also be utilized.

In the Limited-Time Recruitment, there’s a 4% probability of obtaining an SSR Nikke, while the chance for an SSR Sparkling Summer Anis is 2%.

③ You can get Gold Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Limited-Time Recruitment.

④ You can exchange 200 Gold Mileage Tickets for Anis: Sparkling Summer in the Mileage Shop.

⑤ When Limited-Time Recruitment ends, unused Gold Mileage Tickets will not disappear.

After the Limited-Time Recruitment event concludes and is updated, Anis: Sparking Summer will no longer be obtainable through Ordinary Recruit, New Commander Special Recruit, Ordinary Recruit (Tutorial), Social Point Recruit, Mileage Shop, or by purchasing Mold items.

1.3 SSR Helm: Aquamarine

SSR Helm: Aquamarine makes a return in this scorching summer!

Aquamarine, the seafaring chief of Aegis named Helm, harbors a long-held desire to embark on maritime assignments. He’s open for recruitment once more.

Helm: Aquamarine enables the squad to utilize their Burst Skills more frequently.

Extra effects occur when she attacks Electric Code enemies, maximizing the squad’s attack power.

– Class: Attacker

– Weapon: Battleship (AR)

– Code: Iron

– Manufacturer: Elysion

The recruitment period will last from the end of the maintenance on July 25, 2024 (UTC+9), up until 4:59:59 in the evening on August 15, 2024 (UTC+9).

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Limited-Time Recruitment

* Recruit Rules:

As an avid player, I have the option to utilize Gems or purchase Advanced Recruit Vouchers for my Special Recruitments. Ordinary Recruit Vouchers don’t apply here.

As a passionate fan, I can tell you that when participating in Limited-Time Recruitments, there’s approximately a 4-in-100 chance of obtaining an SSR Nikke, and around a 2-in-100 chance of securing the coveted SSR Helm: Aquamarine.

③ You can get Gold Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Limited-Time Recruitment.

④ You can exchange 200 Gold Mileage Tickets for Helm: Aquamarine in the Mileage Shop.

⑤ When Limited-Time Recruitment ends, unused Gold Mileage Tickets will not disappear.

After the Limited-Time Recruitment event concludes and the game is updated, I, as a dedicated player, won’t be able to obtain Helm: Aquamarine through Ordinary Recruit, New Commander Special Recruit, the Tutorial Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, or by purchasing in the Mileage Shop. Additionally, creating Mold items to get this character will no longer be an option.
