Stellar Blade x NIKKE DLC Trailer Drop

Doro Spotted!

SHIFT UP, the developer behind the upcoming Goddess of Victory: NIKKE DLC, released a trailer on YouTube on May 22 that has everyone talking. The highlight of the trailer was the appearance of Doro, the chibi-dog meme that has captured the hearts of many. At the trailer's end, Doro interacts with Stellar Blade's protagonist, Eve, showcasing its animated antics, from playful poses to a heartwarming laugh.

Originally a fan art of Stella Unibell from "Soulworker," the chibi-dog concept was embraced by Korean NIKKE forums, transforming NIKKE’s Dorothy into "Dororong." This character's charm spread globally, earning nicknames like "Gremlin Dorothy" and becoming a beloved figure beyond the NIKKE community. The meme's influence even reached SHIFT UP CEO Kim Hyung Tae, who was seen with a Christmas-themed Doro plush in 2024. While Doro's exact role in the collaboration remains a mystery, fans are thrilled by this quirky addition.
