Goddess of Victory: Nikke is a third-person sci-fi themed railgun style shooter game developed by Shift Up and is published by Level Infinite. The game was released globally for Android and iOS in 2022 and currently has a PC version available. The game is also part dating sim, character/waifu collector with some JRPG style elements attached. Nikke is also a gacha game with over thirty different female characters to collect and combined to make your Ultimate 5 girl Nikke team.

I like to point out that this review is based on experience I had with the PC version of Nikke Goddess of Victory that I am currently playing so it may differ from the reviews on the Android and iOS version. Also this is mostly a first impression review since I have only been playing this game for roughly 6 days or so.

Since I’ll be touching some aspects of Season 1 there will be spoilers in this for you if you haven’t seen the first Season yet. You can read my review of Season 1 here.
