For those who don’t play NIKKE: Goddess of Victory, it’s an arcade-style cover-based shooter, where pretty girls wield humongous firearms from behind convenient knee-high walls.

And that exact same gameplay has been converted to Stellar Blade, as part of a new minigame which will feature as part of the release’s upcoming crossover expansion pack.

This trailer gives us our first taste of the action, and also shows off outfits based on popular characters like Rapi, Alice, and more. We also get our first look at robo-dog Volt, who will be a new merchant in the add-on pack.

The video concludes with the recently revealed boss battle against Scarlet, an enormously popular character from the NIKKE universe who’s been redesigned in Stellar Blade’s artstyle here. You’ll need to beat her to unlock more outfits.

So all in all, this is looking like a great time, and something to help ease the wait for the game’s sequel in a couple of years.
