NIKKE x Resident Evil Crossover Announced

Shift Up's Goddess of Victory: Nikke is no stranger to crossovers, having previously hosted characters from Nier Automata, Dave the Diver, and Neon Genesis Evangelion. The latest collaboration, announced during the Future Games Show, brings Resident Evil into the mix. For a game that thrives on limited-time events, this is a significant get—especially with Resident Evil 9 on the horizon.

The teaser opens with a Nikke character cowering as cultists perform a summoning ritual. A ghoul's hand grabs her shoulder, and the scene cuts to two silhouetted figures approaching a mansion. Inside, lifeless Nikkes lie scattered, and a man in a lab coat is shot by a cartoon Jill Valentine. One of the approaching figures resembles an anime-style Leon Kennedy, though this is Unconfirmed — subject to change.

What We Know So Far

The teaser is heavy on atmosphere but light on specifics. The cultist ritual and mansion setting evoke classic Resident Evil horror, while the cartoonish Jill Valentine suggests a stylized take. Shift Up has not confirmed which other Resident Evil characters will appear, nor the event's duration or rewards.

Previous NIKKE crossovers have typically run for several weeks, offering limited-time banners, free characters, and themed missions. Based on that pattern, players can expect similar structure here, but no official details are available yet.

Should You Save Your Gems?

With no release date, it's too early to plan pulls. However, crossover characters in NIKKE are often limited and may not rerun frequently. If you're a Resident Evil fan or a collector, start stockpiling Recruit Vouchers and Gems now. F2P players should avoid spending on standard banners until more is revealed.

For now, treat this as a waiting game. Keep an eye on official channels for banner details, rates, and pity information—none of which are available at this time.

Teams & Synergies

Without knowing the kits of Jill, Leon, or any other characters, synergy discussions are purely speculative. Historically, NIKKE crossover units have filled niche roles or boosted specific team compositions. Once skills are revealed, we'll update with recommended teams.

Events & Rewards

No event rewards have been announced. Typical NIKKE crossovers include login bonuses, event currency, and a free SR or SSR unit. Expect similar here, but await confirmation.
