The collaboration will include six outfits from Goddess of Victory: Nikke.
A surprise collaboration between the 2024 Souls-inspired action hit Stellar Blade and mobile action-RPG Goddess of Victory: Nikke was announced during Sony’s State of Play 2025. Alongside this, the game’s PC release date was confirmed for June 2025.
Both Stellar Blade and Goddess of Victory: Nikke were developed by Shift Up. The DLC will include six new outfits, a Nikke-themed boss fight, along with collectible dolls and stickers, which will release in June 2025.
Based on the trailer, the new outfit appears to be inspired by Rapi, a player SR Nikke and the starting deuteragonist of Goddess of Victory: Nikke.
As the trailer progressed, Eve was also seen wearing costumes of five other characters from Nikke, namely Anis, Scarlet, Alice and Dorothy, with the last outfit remaining unconfirmed. However, based on a few hints from the trailer, this sixth outfit seems to be from Divine Punishment. On top of this, the trailer also seemed to tease additional content, including a new map.
This isn’t the first time Stellar Blade released a collab DLC. Shift Up previously partrnered with Square Enix in 2024 for a collab between Stellar Blade and Yoko Taro’s Nier Automata.
PC release set for June 2025
Alongside the DLC, Stellar Blade is also set to launch on PC in June 2025. According to the latest financial report, first covered by Eurogamer, the company expects that the sales of the game on PC will exceed console sales.
"In the AAA game market, PC devices hold a greater market share than consoles, so we anticipate that the PC version’s performance will surpass that of the console release," the company stated.
"We are particularly monitoring industry trends, including the rapid growth of the single-player action game market within the Asian gaming sector." This rapid growth could have been referring to Black Myth: Wukong successfully selling 20 million copies in January. The studio also previously promised to optimise the game for Steam Deck.
In its first two months following its April 2024 release, Stellar Blade sold over 1 million copies, generating approximately $43 million in revenue, according to the financial report shared by Eurogamer.
