Phase 1 features Makoto Nijima, and Phase 2 brings Yukiko Amagi. The countdown above tracks the next update in real time.

Goddess of Victory: Nikke is Shift Up's story-driven RPG shooter, set on a ruined Earth reclaimed by mechanical invaders called the Raptures, with humanity sheltering underground. You command squads of Nikkes — androids who fight on the surface — in cover-based gunplay, tapping to peek out and fire in real time. It's known for a heavily narrative campaign and a distinctive art style, and it consistently ranks among the top-grossing mobile games.

Unlike most gacha titles, Nikke doesn't use public version numbers. Instead, updates are identified by their in-game event — story chapters and limited seasonal events — and each debuts new Nikkes through its Recruitment banners. Rather than a six-week version, the schedule moves on a roughly two-week banner rhythm, so this page keys the countdown to the next banner or event rather than a numbered patch.

New SSR Nikkes are pulled through Recruit using in-game currency and vouchers. The game uses a mileage (wishlist) system: pulls accumulate points you can spend to hand-pick certain units, which softens the usual gacha luck. Each event typically introduces one or two new SSR Nikkes alongside story content and limited-time modes.

The current banners, the upcoming banner, and a history of recent events and their debuting Nikkes are listed below. Because there are no version numbers, the schedule is organised by event and banner names instead. Nikke runs on global servers — use the timezone selector to see banner timing in your local clock.

Frequently asked questions

When is the next Nikke update?
Nikke banners and events rotate on roughly a two-week rhythm. The countdown on this page shows the time remaining until the next banner or update goes live.
Does Nikke have version numbers?
No — Nikke doesn't use public version numbers. Updates are identified by their in-game event name, and this page tracks the schedule using those event and banner names rather than numbered patches.
What time do Nikke banners start and end?
Nikke banners generally start and end around 05:00 (UTC+9). The countdown reflects the relevant banner time; use the timezone selector to convert it to your local time.
How does Nikke's gacha work?
New SSR Nikkes are pulled through Recruit. Nikke uses a mileage/wishlist system where pulls build up points you can spend to directly obtain chosen units, reducing reliance on pure luck compared with a hard-pity-only system.
How often does Nikke add new characters?
New SSR Nikkes debut with most events, usually one or two at a time across the event's Recruitment banners. The current and upcoming featured Nikkes are listed above.
Are these official Nikke dates?
Dates and banner details are compiled from official announcements and community patch notes. Not-yet-confirmed banners are shown as estimates and clearly marked.
