Shift Up announced the next two playable characters joining Goddess of Victory: NIKKE, and they are the SSR units Phantom and Quency: Escape Queen. Both have a thief theme to them, to match the next update events. Each one will appear on their own Pick Up Recruitment banner after the update.
In the case of Phantom, sheās designed to be a Phantom Thief type of unit in NIKKE. Sheāll wield an AR known as Midnight Thief and is an Elysion unit. Her full moveset hasnāt been revealed yet. However, there is a brief animated clip showing her model, and thereās also art showing her perched behind cover.
Meanwhile, we know a lot more about the Quency: Escape Queen variant of the established NIKKE character ahead of her debut. In addition to the crouching art and standing model teaser showing her with the SMG Secret Exit, thereās a motion demonstration trailer and insight into her new skills and role. Like the standard version of the SSR, sheās part of the Real Kindness Squad and is a Missilis Industry character.Ā
However, this Quency alt is now an Attacker who deals Water damage and has a III Burst Skill. Her Explore Route and Secure Route passives both work to buff her. So Explore Route increases her hit rate and attack by various stages, then Secure Route increases distributed damage, damage to core, and critical rate after certain Explore Route stages are met by keeping her in the field. Her The Great Thief Burst Skill III further increases her capabilities by increasing her reload speed and attack damage briefly while dealing damage to all enemies.
Prior to this, a number of other notable characters debuted in the game. There was an Evangelion crossover with paid and free units. We also saw a newcomer named Rouge and got a free Red Hood costume in September 2024.
Goddess of Victory: NIKKE is available on PCs and mobile devices, and Phantom and Quency: Escape Queen will be the next SSR characters to appear.
