Stellar Blade x NIKKE DLC Trailer Unveiled

SHIFT UP, the developer behind both titles, released a trailer for the upcoming Goddess of Victory: NIKKE DLC collaboration on YouTube on May 22. Enthusiasts were quick to spot Doro, the beloved chibi-dog meme, making a brief yet impactful appearance.

In the trailer's final moments, Doro interacts with Stellar Blade's protagonist, Eve, showcasing its animated antics through poses, playful runs, and a charming laugh that has captivated fans worldwide.

The meme, originally a fan art of Stella Unibell from "Soulworker" reimagined as a chibi-dog, gained traction across Korean NIKKE forums. It evolved into "Dororong" after being applied to NIKKE's Dorothy, whose quirky and chaotic persona earned her nicknames like "Gremlin Dorothy." Her fame spread beyond the NIKKE community, reaching even SHIFT UP's CEO, Kim Hyung Tae, who was seen with a Christmas-themed Doro plush in 2024. While Doro's exact role in the collaboration remains a mystery, fans are thrilled by her inclusion.

The official website teases an array of new content, including a challenging boss battle against Scarlet from NIKKE, along with NIKKE-themed rewards, outfits, a new mini-game, and more.

The website details, "The warrior Scarlet has arrived from Shift Up’s hit third-person shooter mobile app to challenge you in a one-on-one showdown for the ages – only by defeating this new Boss, can you claim a new costume, hairstyle, and song for EVE as a reward."

The new mini-game draws inspiration from NIKKE’s sci-fi shooting mechanics, and players can visit a rewards shop run by NIKKE’s robotic dog Volt to acquire themed outfits and cosmetics. For a more relaxed experience, a fishing mini-game offers the chance to collect six unique NIKKE items.
