If Infinity Nikki is your first live service gacha game, then welcome, the work never ends. While you may still be making your way through the initial eight chapters of the main storyline, the release’s first major update is close, and scheduled to release on 30th December. There’s a ton to get through here, so let’s not waste any time.

Named the Shooting Star Season, the content will run through 23rd January, and promises “new storylines, platforming challenges, time-limited events, and, of course, stunning outfits to ring in the new year”.

The blurb explains: “During the Shooting Star Season, shimmering meteors will grace the night skies over Miraland as residents come together and cast their wishes upon the stars. Beyond these cosmic travellers and festive decorations, players will find a series of new activities, rewards, and ways to interact with the cozy open-world.”

Of the aforementioned outfits, you’ll be able to unlock Path of Starlight for free by completing various in-game activities.

Meanwhile, the new 5-Star outfit, named Wings of Wishes, will add a new Paper Crane floating ability, which looks incredible in the trailer. This will be part of the gacha, alongside the 4-Star outfit Starfall Radiance. This has an added little detail in that when you strike a specific pose, shooting stars will appear in the background of your photographs

The four-week cadence of Infinity Nikki’s updates may be a little too fast for our tastes – most other gachas operate on a six-week sequence – but it looks like there’s tons to look forward to here. What are you most looking forward to: the new gameplay or the stunning new outfits?
