April 1st has arrived, and with it comes a slew of exciting announcements, events, and the occasional trailer that teases fans with content that might be too good to be true. But for fans of Goddess of Victory: Nikke, there's no need to worry—this year's April Fool's event promises plenty of fun and surprises.
The beloved characters Shifty and Syuen are making their annual return, joined by the new and exclusive April Fool's character, Mecha Shifty. This heavily armored and up-gunned version of Shifty will be available for players to use in specific battle missions, adding a fresh twist to the gameplay.
But that's not all—Goddess of Victory: Nikke has also dropped a surprising movie trailer, hinting at a film that's supposedly set to premiere in Los Angeles and New York City. Is this a real cinematic venture, or just an elaborate April Fool's gag? The trailer features the event's star, Mecha Shifty, which might suggest it leans more towards humor than serious drama. While I'm skeptical about its authenticity, it's undeniable that Nikke's team puts significant effort into their April Fool's events.
If the movie turns out to be more than just a trailer—even if it's meant to be humorous—we'll likely hear more about it in the coming days. But for now, as you dive back into Goddess of Victory: Nikke to experience this year's April Fool's content, don't forget to check out our tier list and reroll guide.
