Level Infinite will hold a special broadcast marking the fourth anniversary of the shooter RPG Goddess of Victory: Nikke on October 24 at 19:00 local time, the company said. The show will air on the game's official YouTube channel. Gamemeca reported the schedule on October 5, while Kyunghyang Games said Level Infinite announced it on October 6; the documents do not reconcile those dates. [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]

According to Inven and Kyunghyang Games, the broadcast will present a large-scale global event, a new update and rewards for users, along with information about the story that follows main story chapter 48. Kyunghyang Games said the fourth anniversary falls at the point where the game's third ground reclamation war and a confrontation with the unknown entity known as the Rapture Queen begin in earnest, after the third-anniversary update expanded the main story to the surface.

Ahead of the broadcast, a fourth-anniversary key visual was released under the concept “all goddesses assemble,” showing main characters gathered around a goddess of victory statue. Characters shown include Rapi: Red Hood, Anis: Star, Cinderella, Little Mermaid, Helm, Neon: Vision Eye, Snow White: Heavy Arms, Arc Ranger Black and Laplace: Ultimate Hero, Kyunghyang Games reported. Gamemeca described a teaser image carrying the title “all assemble” in which Rapi: Red Hood, Neon: Vision Eye and Anis: Star crown a headless angel statue. [ 1 , 3 ]

In Japan, the broadcast will run in two parts on October 24, with part one from 16:30 and part two from 19:00, according to Gamemeca, which said organisers are also recruiting participants to attend in person. The report did not say whether the Korean broadcast will follow the same two-part format. [ 1 ]

Gamemeca said the game has drawn a strong response for its anniversary updates, noting that the April 3.5-year update ranked first in app market revenue in Korea and Japan. Kyunghyang Games said the title has held large anniversary updates and special broadcasts every year since its global release in November 2022, and that its third-anniversary event introduced new SSR characters, main story content and new features. Gamemeca added that specific details of the fourth-anniversary content had not yet been released. [ 1 , 3 ]

Why it matters

The anniversary broadcast is the point where publisher Level Infinite and developer Shift Up detail the game's next update and rewards, so its contents will shape player spending and engagement in Korea and Japan over the following weeks. Game outlets note that earlier anniversary updates have been heavily promoted events in these markets.
