Nikke: The Goddess of Victory is mobile shooter from Shift Up, the Korean developer which made Destiny Child. If you did not know, Shift Up’s CEO is Kim Hyung-tae, the lead artist who gave NCsoft’s Blade & Soul its distinctive visual design. In this game, humanity has been forced to live underground after an invasion, and the top 3 companies are building fighting machines known as “Nikke” in order to try and reclaim the surface.
Note: There is also a 4th faction in the game, Pilgrim, though this Nikke is on her own. She is described as one of the earliest prototype of Nikke, and now wanders around solo taking out the enemies.
It seems that the enemies, known as Raptures, are mechanical by nature, as seen in the trailer above and also the boss art work provided. Shift Up is planning to launch Nikke: The Goddess of Victory in 2022, so stay tuned for updates!
