Halloween-themed new Nikke Belorta: Pumpkin Witch and Halloween event
Plus a new Side Story featuring the next chapter of Old Tales

Become the Most Beautiful Maid! Cinderella New Costume Giveaway
Goddess of Victory: Nikke's October 8 (Thu) update adds Cinderella's new costume, 'Glass Curtsy.' Commemorating her 1st-place finish in Global Popularity Poll IV, the costume can be obtained for free simply by logging in during the 'Cinderella Special' event. It features full voice-overs, a new Burst Skill cutscene, a standing pose, and special SD animations. Being equal in quality to paid Costume Gacha skins, it carries high value.
The giveaway rewards do not stop at the costume. Theme song 'Beautiful Me' and limited frames featuring the top 5 popularity poll characters—Cinderella, Liberalio, Little Mermaid, Arcana: Fortune Mate, and Snow White: Heavy Arms—are also provided. The claim period runs until December 3 (Thu) at 4:59 AM, so be sure to log in and collect them.
Alongside the new costume giveaway, the special scenario event 'MOST BEAUTIFUL MAID' is also live. Continuing from the previous story, it unfolds a narrative that showcases another side of Cinderella's charm. Unlike the costume giveaway, the scenario event runs until October 28 (Wed), so make sure to complete it within the event window.




Damage Taken Debuff + Sustained Damage Buffer: Belorta: Pumpkin Witch
This update introduces the new Nikke 'Belorta: Pumpkin Witch.' She is a Water-code Supporter Nikke from Tetra Line who equips a Rocket Launcher. She applies a damage taken increase debuff to enemies while granting ATK and sustained damage increase buffs to 1 ally. With top-tier sustained damage dealers such as Mihara: Bonding Chain and Diesel: Winter Sweets available, her value is high.
The Pick-Up banner for the new Belorta variant runs until October 28 (Wed) with a 2% rate. Although Halloween-themed, she is not a time-limited Nikke; after Special Recruit ends, she will be added to Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, and Mold items.

Suspicious Rumors Spread Across the Halloween Festival! LITTLE WITCH TRICK
The new story event 'LITTLE WITCH TRICK' runs until October 28 (Wed). As Belorta enthusiastically prepares for the Halloween festival and enjoys playing pranks, suspicious rumors begin to spread, setting the story in motion.
Event-exclusive items gathered by completing event stages can be exchanged in the shop for Recruit Tickets, skill growth materials, and more. Growth materials can also be earned in Challenge Stages that pit players against high-difficulty bosses, with the event shop closing on October 28 (Wed) as well.
During the same period, the 14-day cumulative login event 'DAILY TRICK' will also take place. Players can earn Advanced Recruit Tickets, growth resources, and more by logging in for 14 days. Story event missions also reward Memory Film required to unlock Archives, so be sure to collect those too.



In Search of Hansel and Gretel: New Side Story
The Side Story 'GINGERBREAD HOUSE,' depicting the next journey of Old Tales, has been added. After parting ways with Island Eater, Old Tales crosses the vast ocean to search for their final companions, Hansel and Gretel, encountering a stranger along the way. It can be viewed at the Command Center in the Outpost after clearing Main Chapter Normal Stage 6-15.
Despite the name, Nikke's Side Stories feature content closely tied to the main plot and offer exceptional storytelling quality. Players interested in the lore are highly recommended to play through it before the anniversary event.
