Goddess of Victory: NIKKE is turning up the spotlight for its 3.5th Anniversary, releasing the full stage performance of “Be My Star” by T.T. Star (Twinkle Tri-Star). The special video drop on May 4 gives fans a complete look at the in-game concert experience, putting one of the game’s most beloved characters front and center.
“On this special day, T.T. STAR takes the shining stage to bring you the full version of ‘BE MY STAR’,” the announcement reads, calling on Commanders to cheer the group on as the stage performance goes live more than a week after the music video was released.
More than just a bonus feature, the “Be My Star” stage act is closely tied to Anis’ personal story. Before she became a symbol of hope, she joined forces with Mint and Prika to form an idol group under Hanson’s guidance.
The group’s early performances were far from successful, often failing to draw interest from audiences. Despite the lack of recognition, Anis refused to give up, an attitude that ultimately shaped her into a figure the Ark could rally behind.

That journey comes full circle in the 3.5th Anniversary update, where Anis takes center stage once again for her “Lights of Hope” comeback tour as the lead vocalist of T.T. STAR, the idol group she helped establish before joining the Counters. The narrative revisits the group’s difficult early days leading up to her eventual breakthrough, spanning Main Story Chapters 45 and 46.
The release of the full stage performance of “Be My Star” also ties into her new SSR form, Anis: Star, an Electro-code Defender whose banner runs until May 14. Equipped with the Star armament, she can absorb energy and unleash it in radiant bursts that resemble starlight.
The 3.5th Anniversary has also grown into a worldwide event, with millions of fan activities helping unlock all seven major milestone rewards. These include high-production T.T. STAR music videos, exclusive cosmetics, and even real-world global landmark video messages displayed in cities like Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, New York City, and London.
Running from April 23 to May 14, the ongoing 3.5th Anniversary enables players to dive into new content and rewards, including the anniversary’s story event, Star Anis. This story event features the new SSR Nikke Avistar, a Supporter unit who can be obtained for free through a 14-day login campaign and special event missions.
There are also two new Anis: Star costumes, Popstar and Starlight, that further highlight her idol comeback era, along with another SSR unit, Neon: Vision Eye. She is an upgraded Overspec version of the original Neon with complete immunity to Corruption and other debuff effects. She has been added to the recruitment pool starting April 30 and will be available until May 21.
Also a highlight of the 3.5th Anniversary update is the rhythm mini-game Tracing the Stars, where players must time their inputs to match T.T. STAR’s music.
As with past updates, NIKKE’s anniversary celebrations go beyond simple rewards. Previous milestones introduced major story expansions, cinematic sequences, and themed events. One standout example is the Goddess Fall event from the 3rd Anniversary, which followed Nayuta and the forces of Eden as they prepared for a decisive clash against the Queen.
With the 3.5th Anniversary event running until May 14, you still have time to jump in, experience the new content, and claim some sweet limited-time rewards.
