Play Content Development Progress Update
We hope the recently updated Profile Card Decoration and Title features provided satisfactory content to Commanders. As such, GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE has recently updated its collection and decoration elements and is also preparing several updates in terms of play content.
In the last developer note, I briefly explained the contents and schedule of the update. Today, we will focus on the development status of some of those contents.
Simulation Room Overclock Official Season
The official season of Simulation Room Overclock will begin in late August.
Simulation Room Overclock is structured into 12-week seasons, with the next season starting immediately after the current one ends. It is designed to allow you to acquire Skill Upgrade Material every two weeks continuously.
Each season provides designated stage levels and options. However, some options change every two weeks, so we encourage Commanders to decide wisely when to challenge the season records.
The recommended combat power for stages has increased compared to the beta season, adjusted to align with the recent Modification Equipment updates. Therefore, the actual difficulty level is similar to that of Beta Season 2.
Also, as previously announced, please note that records from the beta season will be removed from profiles with the start of the official season of Simulation Room Overclock.
Anomaly Interception
Next, we would like to introduce Anomaly Interception.
Anomaly Interception introduces bosses of higher difficulty levels such as Combat Level D, Level S, and Special Anomaly Combat, featuring bosses like Ultras and Indivilia, unseen in previous combats.
This content is designed to be significantly challenging, with a maximum Nikke level limit set at 400.
As the level of difficulty is high, instead of rotating bosses, you will be able to select and challenge bosses directly. Moreover, we anticipate offering higher-level rewards compared to Special Anomaly Interception, allowing you to strengthen Manufacturer Equipment and Modification Equipment options more actively.
Anomaly Interception is scheduled to be updated in August as planned, so please look forward to it. Furthermore, we will carefully listen to your feedback even after the update to ensure there are no inconveniences.
Champion Arena / Surface Content Development Update
Development of Champion Arena content has been progressing smoothly, but more time than planned may be required for QA to ensure higher content completeness.
While a definitive delay in schedule has not been confirmed, the current schedule is quite tight, and there is a possibility that the update may occur after September. If there is a delay in the update schedule, we will reconfirm it through developer notes or official channels.
For Surface Content, initial planning has been progressing, and we have begun prototype development. Depending on the results of the prototype, we will guide the direction and update schedule of the content.
Harmony Cube Level Expansion
We plan to expand the level of Harmony Cube through the September update.
As the Harmony Cube level expands, cube abilities, skills, and cube equipment slots will also expand. We are currently reviewing the appropriate level of expansion. While the exact expanded cube level has not been determined, please note that we plan to expand a minimum of 6 cube slots.
Favorite Item Release Cycle Change
The current Favorite Item release plan was to update the character’s one Favorite Item every two months. However, based on your feedback from the recent survey, we plan to change the Favorite Item release cycle to approximately 3 releases within about six months.
Through this adjustment, we hope to secure more time for obtaining Favorite Items and Nikke’s growth currently available.
We at GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE will always listen to the opinions of our Commanders and do our best to make it a better game. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the many Commanders who provided their valuable opinions through the survey.
New Main Scenario Chapter Release
You’ve been waiting for a long time. Main Scenario Chapters 31 and 32 are scheduled to be updated soon.
In this story, the owner of the Crystal Region will appear, and various incidents, including the opening of the previously closed coffin, will occur. You can also meet new characters and see beloved characters after a long time in this story, so please look forward to it.
The main scenario will be updated in July, along with updates to Lost Sector, Tribe Tower, and new bosses.
Archives Event Addition
We also have events being added to the Archives. Last year’s summer grand event, “SEA, YOU, AGAIN,” and the BBQ Master – a Skewer BBQ tycoon mini-game – will be updated in July. Since many of you enjoyed them immensely, it would be great to play them again.
Furthermore, “A.C.P.U.! Freeze!” will be added to the Archives in August, so please show a lot of interest.
