On August 13, the collaboration event between 'Goddess of Victory: NIKKE' and the 'Persona series' finally went live. To sweeten the deal, the developers have added main story chapters 47 and 48, allowing players to dive into both the limited-time event narrative and the main campaign simultaneously.

The event story, 'PERSONA ON FRONTLINE', runs from August 13 to September 10. It chronicles a meeting between the mysterious wielders of 'Persona' powers who appear in the Ark and the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. The narrative is split into two parts, with Story 1 and Story 2 unlocking on August 13 and August 20, respectively. Throughout the event, players can tackle event stages, challenge stages, and exclusive co-op operations, or try their hand at the 'MIDNIGHT PHANTOM RUNNER' mini-game. Make sure to visit the event shop to trade for 'Advanced Recruit Tickets', 'Recruit Tickets', and essential growth materials.

Main story chapters 47 and 48 pick up right where the 'ARK RANGER' story event left off. The Commander and Counters, now joined by Eden, head to the Orbital Elevator to confront the Rapture Queen. Expect some familiar faces along the way, and do yourself a favor by experiencing the fully voiced narrative. Furthermore, the 'Trail Marker' event is running until October 8; those who clear the new main scenarios can claim '10 Recruit Tickets' and '5 Custom Modules' as a reward. Since progress in story mode counts toward the criteria, it is high time to catch up on the main saga.

The collaboration introduces three characters: two SSRs and one SR. 'Queen (Makoto Niijima)' and 'Yukiko Amagi' are available via limited-time pickup banners and will not be recruitable once the event concludes. Both are 'Attacker - Fire Code' units, with Makoto wielding a shotgun and Yukiko a machine gun. It seems wise to field them together, as their skill sets provide synergies that boost one another. Makoto's pickup starts on August 13, followed by Yukiko's on August 20, so mark your calendars. As for the SR character 'Aigis', players can obtain enough copies to reach maximum limit break through event rewards and login bonuses.

Keep an eye on the schedule for Solo Raids and Co-op Operations. Solo Raids run from August 20 to 27, while Co-op Operations are slated for August 14–16, August 21–23, and August 28–30. The boss, 'Gate Keeper', features varying attributes, so be sure to check the detailed info to master the attack patterns before engaging. The Solo Raid boss is weak to the Fire Code, suggesting that Makoto and Yukiko will be the stars of the show. For further boss details, stay tuned to official announcements. Full update patch notes are available via the Goddess of Victory: NIKKE official lounge and in-game notices.
