Developer Shift Up is renowned for its distinctive game releases. Beyond the highly anticipated Stellar Blade, known for its sci-fi action and boldly designed female protagonist, lies Goddess of Victory Nikke. This gacha anime game also features an array of scantily-clad characters wielding powerful firearms, clearly showcasing a consistent design philosophy.
Nikke keeps players engaged with its character-rich world and exciting crossover events. Following a hugely popular collaboration that introduced Nier: Automata’s 2B, Shift Up has now unveiled a surprising Resident Evil crossover. While the Nier series, despite its realistic graphics, often draws from anime aesthetics, Resident Evil is famously rooted in classic horror themes reminiscent of George Romero’s works.
Despite these stylistic differences, nothing will stop Jill Valentine, Ada Wong, and Claire Redfield from making their appearance in the new ‘Salvation through the Crimson Flame’ event. These three iconic Resident Evil characters have been reimagined in Nikke’s signature anime style, bringing all the unique flair expected from a Nikke crossover.
The event trailer showcases our protagonists exploring a deserted mansion, teeming with various monsters. Whether you prefer a crossbow or a rocket launcher, this Resident Evil crossover promises to refresh Nikke’s gameplay, aligning it more closely with the tense atmosphere of Capcom’s horror series.
Your mission in this thrilling new crossover is to stop the spread of a mysterious NEO-Virus infection, locate your Resident Evil allies, and uncover the secrets lurking within the crimson chapel.
The Goddess of Victory Nikke x Resident Evil crossover event officially launched on Wednesday, September 24.
