NIKKE Persona crossover adds Queen, Yukiko and Aigis

The August 13 update for Goddess of Victory: NIKKE introduces a limited-time Persona crossover that adds two new SSRs, a free SR, a multi-part event, exclusive costumes, new campaign chapters and a running mini-game.

Queen (Makoto Niijima) joins Limited-Time Recruitment as an SSR Attacker. Her kit increases her own offensive power and further raises damage when she activates her Burst Skill. Queen is listed with the Fire code, uses the shotgun Iron Verdict and is classified under the Abnormal manufacturer.

SSR Yukiko Amagi appears as an Attacker who combines offensive actions with self-buffing and healing abilities. Her Burst Skill improves her own stats, restores allies and delivers multi-target damage. Yukiko carries the Fire code, wields the machine gun Crimson Bloom and is also classified as Abnormal.

SR Aigis, presented as the seventh-generation Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapon from Persona 3 Reload, joins as a Supporter. Aigis is obtainable for free through the PERSONA ON FRONTLINE event during the collaboration period.

The PERSONA ON FRONTLINE event opens with STORY I at launch and continues with STORY II on August 20. The event story centers on unexplained loss-of-consciousness incidents aboard the Ark and the appearance of mysterious D‑Waves, which lead the in-game cast to encounter characters who can channel Persona powers. The event features a large exploration map where players can acquire SR Aigis, Gems, development materials and Lost Relics. A Challenge Stage offers higher-difficulty battles and additional rewards.

The crossover includes several exclusive costumes. Queen’s Pajamas are distributed through the THIEF QUEEN PASS while Yukiko’s Winter Roomwear is available via the SNOW FLAKES PASS. Achievement missions within PERSONA ON FRONTLINE unlock alternate outfits: Queen’s Shujin Academy Student Council President uniform and Yukiko’s Amagi Inn Kimono. Phantom receives a Saint Thief costume through Costume Gacha and Flora gains a Fairy Rabbit outfit through the September Mission Pass.

A collaboration-exclusive Coordinated Operation permits five Commanders to team up against Gatekeeper across three weekends. Players can earn Broken Cores and Rusted Bones in that operation, which are exchangeable for items in the Recycling Shop.

The update adds MIDNIGHT PHANTOM RUNNER, an endless runner mini-game themed on Phantom’s phantom thief simulator. Players run through a corridor, avoid enemies and collect items to reach the highest distance and score.

Story and progression updates include the addition of the TRUE FLAVOR entry to the Archives, unlockable with Memory Films earned during the event, and the addition of Campaign Chapters 47 and 48 to continue the main campaign beyond Chapter 46. A 14-day login event titled Phantom Thieves’ Calling Card grants items such as SR Aigis, Advanced Recruit Vouchers and development materials. A Trail Marker Event awards players for clearing Main Scenario stages, including those on Story Difficulty.

The update also brings endgame adjustments and expanded late-game content intended to provide more objectives and material sinks for returning and veteran players. The Persona crossover runs across the event window with key story episodes and limited recruitment opportunities scheduled through mid to late August.
