Stellar Blade x NIKKE DLC Trailer Released

Doro Makes an Appearance!

Developer SHIFT UP unveiled the trailer for their forthcoming Goddess of Victory: NIKKE DLC collaboration on May 22 via YouTube, where eagle-eyed fans immediately noticed the inclusion of the viral chibi-dog meme Doro.

In the trailer's closing moments, Doro makes a brief but memorable cameo, interacting with Stellar Blade's heroine Eve. The internet sensation appears in full animated form, striking poses, scampering about, and capping off the trailer with its signature laugh.

The meme originated from fan art of Stella Unibell from "Soulworker," depicting her as an adorable chibi-dog. Korean NIKKE communities quickly adopted the concept, applying it to NIKKE's Dorothy (dubbed "Dororong"). Her playful, chaotic energy went global, earning nicknames like "Gremlin Dorothy" and appearing beyond NIKKE fan circles.

The phenomenon even reached SHIFT UP CEO Kim Hyung Tae, who was photographed with a Christmas-themed Doro plush alongside his wife in 2024. While Doro's exact role in the collaboration remains a mystery, fans are thrilled by this quirky yet fitting addition to the crossover event.

Stellar Blade x NIKKE Launching June 11

The much-anticipated crossover launches June 11 alongside the game's PC version. According to official details, the expansion will introduce:

• A challenging new boss battle against NIKKE's Scarlet

• NIKKE-themed cosmetic rewards including outfits

• A new shooting-style mini-game
