Goddess of Victory: Nikke Game Gets New Manga Adaptation
The official X (formerly Twitter) account for Kadokawa's Dengeki Maoh magazine announced on Saturday that SHIFT UP's Goddess of Victory: Nikke game will receive a new official manga adaptation by Yokoshima Penguin this winter to celebrate the franchise's fourth anniversary. The manga will focus on the Goddess squad as the main characters.
Yokoshima Penguin has contributed to Nikke manga anthologies in the past.
The game previously inspired a slice-of-life manga by Kio Utsusumi titled Goddess of Victory: Nikke Sweet Encounter.
Goddess of Victory: Nikke combines gacha card collecting with shooter-style gameplay. Publisher Level Infinite launched the game globally on iOS and Android devices on November 4, 2022. The game also launched a PC version in February 2023 with single account login and cross-play with the mobile version. As Level Infinite describes the story, "players lead a squad of android soldiers called Nikke, the last hope for reclaiming the overworld from a vicious race of aliens called Raptures who have forced humanity underground."
The game has featured collaborations with Chainsaw Man, NieR: Automata, Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, and Evangelion.
A-1 Pictures animated a special video for the game's "Old Tales" event in 2024.
