Level Infinite will implement the latest version "PROJECT MATIS" for the gun girl RPG "Goddess of Victory: NIKKE" on July 23, 2026. The update introduces two new SSR Nikkes: "Laplace: Ultimate Hero" (voiced by Ai Kakuma), available in special recruitment starting July 23, and "Maxwell: Ordinary Mechanic" (voiced by Sora Amamiya), available from July 30. A new story event, also titled "PROJECT MATIS," depicts Laplace and Maxwell undergoing body reconditioning ahead of the third surface recapture battle, with Syuen recalling distant memories. Limited costumes for both new characters will be available: the "Prototype Hero" costume for Laplace via the PROTOTYPE PASS, and the "Chief Researcher" costume for Maxwell via the August Mission Pass. The limited costume "Nostalgia" for SSR Nikke Dorothy (voiced by Chiwa Saito) will be re-released in the costume gacha. Additional content includes the 14-day login event "HERO DAYS," the weekend-limited "FULL BURST DAY" with double rewards, the "Solo Raid Museum" allowing rematches against past bosses, and the archive "NEW FLAVOR" opening on July 23.
The "PROJECT MATIS" version for "Goddess of Victory: NIKKE" arrives on July 23, 2026, following maintenance from 11:00 to 18:00 JST. The two new SSR Nikkes are variants of existing characters: Laplace, the self-proclaimed hero of the Ark and leader of Matis, returns as "Laplace: Ultimate Hero," while the squad's mechanic Maxwell appears as "Maxwell: Ordinary Mechanic." Both are described as returning in powered-up forms. The story event "PROJECT MATIS" is set on the eve of the third surface recapture war and focuses on the duo's re-equipment and Syuen's memories. The limited costume "Prototype Hero" for Laplace is tied to the PROTOTYPE PASS, while Maxwell's "Chief Researcher" costume is part of the August Mission Pass. The re-release of Dorothy's "Nostalgia" costume runs through the costume gacha from July 23 to August 12. The Solo Raid Museum will feature three past bosses: Harvester, Crystal Chamber, and Indivilia. The archive "NEW FLAVOR" becomes accessible after the update.
