GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE x RESIDENT EVIL Collaboration Release Date
GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE x RESIDENT EVIL Collaboration stars on September 24, 2025, on every platform where NIKKE is available. This will include iOS, Android, and PC. The end date isn’t announced yet, but since most collabs in NIKKE usually last around two to three weeks, we expect the same timeline here too.
Throughout the event, you can expect different phases, like story chapters and bonus missions, to unlock along the way. The theme this time leans into horror with creepy mansions, virus outbreaks, and cult-like settings, giving the game a more atmospheric tone than its usual Rapture battles.
GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE x RESIDENT EVIL Collaboration Story Overview
The collab story is called Salvation Through the Crimson Flame. It takes you to the surface where a NEO-Virus outbreak spreads inside an old mansion and a ruined church. The Central Government sends the A.C.P.U. Squad featuring Poli, Quiry, and Miranda alongside Perilous Siege’s D and your Commander to investigate strange disappearances.
During this mission, you’ll meet RESIDENT EVIL’s well-known characters in intense, horror-driven encounters. Expect settings like blood-red chapels, eerie shadows, and virus-driven enemies.
From the trailers, we can already spot tense scenes like Poli fighting to survive and the RESIDENT EVIL trio appearing in a foggy, cinematic reveal. The plot blends NIKKE’s war against the Raptures with RESIDENT EVIL’s biohazard themes, which means you’ll not only get action-packed fights but also new lore connections. Finishing the story will unlock rewards and expand on your squad’s background.

New Playable Nikkes: Crossover Characters
During this collab, you’ll be able to recruit three iconic heroines from RESIDENT EVIL as limited-time Nikkes. Their designs stay true to the original characters you know, but they’ve been reimagined to match NIKKE’s combat system and style.
Details about their exact skills, burst types, and stats haven’t been shared yet, but you can expect them to cover the familiar roles like Attacker, Defender, or Supporter. Their abilities are also expected to carry a horror twist, which could include effects such as virus-based debuffs or explosive burst attacks.
So, here is an overview of the crossover characters you will be getting:
|
Character and Rarity |
Inspiration/Design |
Weapon/Role Hints |
|
Jill Valentine SSR |
RESIDENT EVIL 3 Remake outfit; S.T.A.R.S. agent with tactical gear. |
Pistol or assault rifle focus; likely Attacker with high mobility and crowd control. Voiced by Niki Lee Tompkins. |
|
Ada Wong SSR |
RESIDENT EVIL 2 Remake red dress; secret agent vibe. |
Crossbow for ranged precision; potential Supporter or Attacker with stealth mechanics. |
|
Claire Redfield SR |
RESIDENT EVIL 2 style; equipped with practical survival tools. |
GM 79 Grenade Launcher for area damage; probable Attacker suited for explosive plays. |
Note: These units are collabo-exclusive and won't return after the event, so prioritize building them for meta teams or collection purposes.
How to Obtain New Characters?
You'll have a chance to add three well-known RESIDENT EVIL heroines to your NIKKE tier list of characters during this collaboration. Here's how you can get them:
- Jill Valentine and Ada Wong (SSR): Both are available only through the limited-time PickUp Recruitment banner. You can use Gems or Advanced Recruit Vouchers to pull. The drop rates follow the usual SSR system, which is about 4% in total, with pity mechanics in place. To increase your chances, it's smart to save around 20,000 to 30,000 Gems since banners often feature rate-ups for collab characters.
- Claire Redfield (SR): Unlike Jill and Ada, Claire is free for everyone. You can earn up to three copies of her by completing stages in the REBORN EVIL story event and logging in daily during the 14-day campaign. Free-to-play players especially benefit here, since duplicate copies allow limit breaks that improve her stats.
Keep in mind that these characters are not permanent additions. Once the event ends, you won't be able to recruit them again, so make sure to grab them while they're available.
Events and Activities
The GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE x RESIDENT EVIL collaboration offers several activities to keep you engaged, as follows:
- Main Event – REBORN EVIL: This is the core story mode with missions involving virus outbreaks, boss encounters, and crossover battles. You'll also find daily missions that help with progression rewards.
- Web Event – Classified: Track the NEO-Virus: Before the main event begins, you can try this browser-based puzzle. It lets you explore the mansion, collect clues, and work with a mysterious partner. Completing and sharing the event gives you 3 Recruit Vouchers. It runs until September 24 at 23:59 (UTC+9).
- Additional Content: Based on past collabs like NieR and Stellar Blade, you might see co-op raids, minigames, or challenge modes that carry horror elements such as timed escapes or virus-infected bosses. Expect login bonuses and shop bundles that provide more pulls or exclusive cosmetics as well.
Rewards and Loot
Although the full reward list will be available once the event launches, here's what we expect to look forward to based on previews:
- Free Claire Redfield (up to 3 copies) through event stages and daily logins.
- Recruit Vouchers from the web event and likely from in-game milestones.
- Themed rewards such as costumes, frames, and emotes featuring RESIDENT EVIL motifs like virus symbols or mansion designs.
- Standard resources such as Gems, cores, and battle data from stage clears are perfect for boosting your new characters quickly.
Remember, these rewards aren't confirmed by the developers, and these are an expectation of rewards and loot that we guess might come to the game.
