When discussing Shift Up’s Goddess of Victory: NIKKE gacha game, the first association that comes to mind typically would be its provocative and enticing visuals, providing as much fanservice as possible.
Given the nature that it’s more or less a click and shoot style game, various female characters are presented in a crouched position, with their ass pointing towards the player as they jiggle across the screen.
Given these aspects, it’s understandable that many might assume this type of game would predominantly attract men, particularly those with more explicit intentions, collecting new female characters primarily for their sensual appeal, I certainly wouldn’t blame them.
However, data from Sensor Tower has unveiled a surprising revelation: in South Korea, 40% of the players are actually women.
According to Sensor Tower, the game that was recently accused of plagiarism generated $600 million from its global revenue from November 4, 2022, to November 10, 2023.
In its inaugural year, Japan took the lead in revenue share with 59.3%, followed by the United States at 15.5%, and South Korea securing the third position with 12.2%.
However, a notable highlight in these figures is the significant presence of female players in South Korea, constituting 40% of the player base for NIKKE. Exploring this phenomenon, an online commentator suggested that this substantial female representation might be attributed to the appeal of attractive male characters or the enjoyment of NIKKE’s storyline and alluring combat dynamics.
Rest assured that feminist women on social media know absolutely jack shit when it comes to these games of which they perceive to be vile, sexist and demeaning towards all women, their usual argument is that players should “just go watch porn”.
However it’s quite hilarious how a game predominately comprised of miraculously jiggling tits and ass manages to accumulate a large percentage of female players in Shift Up’s home nation of South Korea, highlighting that even women can actually enjoy a bit of fan service, or rather they’re just as likely to become victims of gambling.
It’s really just a large portion of Western feminists with pronouns inside their bio that seemingly wish to depict themselves as eternal victims that have issues with games of this nature.
Despite the overtly sensual content, fans of Goddess of Victory: NIKKE, regardless of gender praise is its “engaging” gameplay and storyline.
