In December 2024, Shift Up added a Rapi: Red Hood alt to Goddess of Victory: NIKKE and she went on to win the Character Popularity Poll 3 in April 2025, and now a free costume is being given away to celebrate that victory. Cherished Red and a number of other bonuses, as well as an event, will appear after maintenance ends on October 16, 2025. The update will also include a new character called Delta: Ninja Thief and Go! Ninja Thief! event that features her and the return of the Miranda – Thief of Justice costume.
There are two parts to the Rapi: Red Hood celebration, with the Cherished Red costume and other rewards available longer than the event starring the Goddess of Victory: NIKKE character. The shorter of the two is “Yes, My Commander.” That focuses on Rapi in quieter, happier times. That can only be experienced between October 16-29, 2025. The Rapi: Red Hood Special starts after maintenance and runs until December 4, 2025. Just logging in to the game will get you the skin for the character, a theme song called “Yes, My Commander” from that event, and a set of five avatar frames based on based on her and the other characters who made it into the top five of the poll. As a reminder, the Goddess of Victory: NIKKE Character Popularity Poll 3 featured her in first, followed by Cinderella in second place, Crown in third, Dorothy in fourth, and Scarlet in fifth.
As for the other additions, the SSR Delta: Ninja Thief is the newest NIKKE in a focus banner after the update until October 29, 2025. She’s a Defender who uses the Ninja Force machine gun, deals water damage, and is part of the Elysion manufacturer crew. She will be available after the next update via Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, and via Mold items. The Miranda – Thief of Justice costume will be in the Cash Shop until October 29, 2025 too. Likewise, Go! Ninja Thief! will run until the next update.
