Summary
- Update 1.2 of Infinity Nikki will add four Eureka sets, two new challenges, and the ability to track Dews of Inspiration.
- The Sovereign of Elegant and the Sovereign of Cool can also be challenged again during the upcoming The Return of Sovereigns event.
- The game's developers continue to respond to fan feedback at a rapid pace.
Infinity Nikki is adding four Eureka sets, two new challenges, the ability to track Dews of Inspiration, and a way to repeatedly challenge the Sovereigns in the upcoming patch. Compared to its predecessors, Infinity Nikki has achieved a notable jump in popularity. Its gameplay revolves around exploring a vibrant open world, solving puzzles, collecting clothes, and using them to complete fashion challenges. Outfits can be given a Glow Up by spending resources, but they can also be augmented with the use of Eurekas.
While powerful outfits can be obtained by pulling on the banners in Infinity Nikki, the game provides its players with plenty of free options as well. In addition to the Mira Crown, the outfits are used to challenge certain Factions in Miraland and ultimately defeat each region's Sovereign. After defeating a Sovereign with a Perfect Rating, they cannot be challenged again. Given the popularity of these characters, coupled with the high quality of the cutscenes, players have asked Infold to make the outfit battles repeatable.
Infinity Nikki Codes (November 2025)
Redeeming Infinity Nikki codes may grant players valuable items like Diamonds or even Revelation Crystals.
Update 1.2 for Infinity Nikki will be themed around the Chinese New Year, represented in-game as the New Bloom Festival. Though Infold has provided details about the main event on the official website, Infinity Nikki players will also receive major quality-of-life changes in the upcoming patch. The Sovereign of Elegant and the Sovereign of Cool will become available once again during the event, with adjusted attributes – but most importantly, players will be able to repeat these challenges to their heart's content.
Infinity Nikki: Quality-of-Life Changes Coming in Update 1.2
- Instead of displaying collection progress by region, Whimstars and Dews of Inspiration can now be tracked by each individual area via a new Map Switching feature.
- Two new Eureka challenges have been added to the game: Ripple Wine Cellar, and Ghost Train. These challenges come with four sets of 5-star Eurekas: Moonlit Ode (Fresh), Dream Waltz (Elegant), Misty Waves (Sexy), Void Hunt (Cool).
-
Players can challenge the Sovereign of Elegant and the Sovereign of Cool in the new The Return of Sovereigns event.
- It remains to be seen if this event will persist beyond Update 1.2.
The addition of new Realm Challenges to Infinity Nikki is arguably the most important change from the list, as not only are Eurekas a valuable part of the game, but the story dungeons in Infinity Nikki are a highlight of its exploration mechanics. The Ripple Wine Cellar and Ghost Train are inspired by the same sections from Chapter 4 and Chapter 5. While players won't be able to see the exact location of the Dews of Inspiration, the new map mode will allow them to narrow it down considerably.
The developers have presented themselves as a team capable of implementing player feedback at a rapid pace, as each patch continues to add more quality-of-life features to Infinity Nikki. Adding global redemption codes for its international players has also shown that Infinity Nikki won't follow in the footsteps of its predecessors and that it will attempt to cultivate a wider audience. As Update 1.2 eyes its release date of January 23, 2025, goodwill among Infinity Nikki fans remains high.
