Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE is a free-to-play sci-fi role-playing shooter for players drawn to character collection, squad combat and a post-apocalyptic story. Players recruit characters with distinct combat specialties, form a squad and command it in battles. It is available on Android and Windows, so it suits mobile players as well as those looking for a desktop option. The game is published by Level Infinite, which lists Shift Up as its developer.
Combat and collection are closely linked: recruited characters bring different specialties, weapons and Burst Skills to squad battles. That gives the game a focus beyond simply collecting characters; players also command their roster and use its abilities during fights. Animated character illustrations and motion-sensing controls add presentation and control options. The central appeal is likely to be strongest for players who want an ongoing roster-driven RPG shooter, rather than a short, self-contained story or a game centered on one character.
The game is free to play and includes in-game purchases, including random items. That model makes it accessible to start, but players who prefer games without optional purchases may want to look elsewhere. Android and Windows are the listed platforms, while cloud, mobile and desktop appear as deployment options. Email is the listed support channel. Choose NIKKE if recruiting characters, assembling a combat squad and progressing through a post-apocalyptic story are the draw; consider another game if random-item purchases or its roster-focused combat do not fit what you want.
