Misato Is a Free Character in NIKKE Evangelion Event

Shift Up officially confirmed that Misato Katsuragi will be a playable character in the Goddess of Victory: NIKKE Evangelion event, and she’ll be a free unit we can earn. As such, she will only be an SR character, while the other three are SSR ones that we get by pulling on banners.

Misato will be a free login reward in NIKKE during the special Memories of NERV Evangelion themed daily login campaign. This is a 21 day login event, with tickets for gacha banner pulls on the docket. According to the roadmap shared below, someone will need to login at least three days to claim Misato.

People will also be able to get Misato Katsuragi for taking part in the Evangelion event in NIKKE. This is how you will get multiple versions of her. Shift Up didn’t note exactly which activities will award someone extras of her, but did note someone will be able to get up to three more of her via that method. The developer also confirmed that like the other three characters, Misato won’t be available after the event ends on September 19, 2024.

The patch notes for the August 22, 2024 NIKKE update offered more details about the character. Misato will be a healer in the game. She’s classified as a Supporter that uses an SMG known as Self-Defense Automatic Pistol. She’s also allied with NERV, like the other three characters in the event, and comes from the Abnormal “Manufacturer.” She deals Iron damage. 

Goddess of Victory: NIKKE is available on PCs and mobile devices, and the Asuka, Mari, and Rei banners and costumes will feature a staggered rollout throughout August and September 2024. The three banners and event will all end on September 19, 2024.
