Goddess of Victory: NIKKE “B-SIDE IDOL” update brings SSR Mint, rerun banners, new costumes, and more

Goddess of Victory: NIKKE is rolling out the B-SIDE IDOL update, introducing a brand-new SSR Nikke, returning collaboration characters, fresh costumes, and multiple gameplay events. Alongside idol-themed story content, the update also expands Archives content, rhythm game features, and cooperative gameplay activities. Below is a complete overview of everything included in the update arriving on May 14, 2026.

Goddess of Victory: NIKKE “B-SIDE IDOL” Event and Update Overview

New SSR Nikke: Mint

SSR Mint, the glamorous pop star and leader of T.T. STAR, joins the roster through Special Recruit. She is a Supporter who can either strengthen or heal allies depending on her current state, which changes whenever she activates her Burst Skill.

Mint uses the rocket launcher Coyly Star, carries the Iron code, and belongs to Tetra Line. Her Special Recruit banner runs from May 14 to June 4, 2026. After the banner ends, Mint will be added to Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, and Mold items.

New Story Event: B-SIDE IDOL

The highlight of the update is the new story event B-SIDE IDOL. Despite being adored throughout the Ark as a popular idol, Mint’s routine changes after meeting a man who remains surprisingly unimpressed by her charm and special fan service.

Intrigued by his reaction, Mint’s competitive side awakens, setting up a more character-focused story centered around fame, relationships, and idol life behind the scenes. The event runs from May 14 to May 28, 2026, and includes event stages, exchange rewards, and a Challenge Stage with difficult boss encounters.

Rerun Characters

The update also brings back several collaboration characters through Limited-Time Recruitment. SSR EVE returns first as an Attacker specializing in critical-hit-based additional attacks and elemental debuffs, followed by SSR Raven, whose offensive power grows stronger whenever enemy parts are destroyed.

Meanwhile, SR Lily rejoins the battlefield and can now be obtained through the MEMORIES TELLER Archives event. During the recruitment period, Mint, EVE, and Raven can also temporarily participate in the Union Shooting Range for testing purposes.

New Costumes and Costume Reruns

Mint receives a brand-new costume titled Fresh Mint, obtainable through the FRESH MINT PASS with full voiceover included. Multiple fan-favorite costumes also return, including Scarlet – Racer’s High, EVE – Skin Suit, EVE – Neurolink Suit, and Raven – Midsummer Alice.

Additional collaboration-related outfits, such as EVE – Keyhole Dress and Raven – Planet Diving Suit (6th) V2 can now be unlocked through the MEMORIES TELLER Archives event.

Archives, Login Event, and Rhythm Game Updates

The story event MEMORIES TELLER has been added to the Archives, which can be used to unlock past content using Memory Films obtained during B-SIDE IDOL. A new 7-day login event titled BACK STAGE GIFT is also available with rewards such as Recruit Vouchers and development materials.

The rhythm mini-game TRACING THE STARS receives major additions with the arrival of the 3rd Anniversary theme song Hurricanes alongside the new T.T.S. EXTENSION PACK V.1, which adds nine additional tracks, including Pretty STAR and Boogie Night.
