The internet's beloved chibi-dog meme, Doro, has made a surprise appearance in the newly released *Stellar Blade x NIKKE* collaboration DLC trailer. The unexpected cameo has quickly gone viral, sparking excitement and curiosity among fans of both franchises. As part of the upcoming crossover event, players can look forward to a fresh wave of content that blends the worlds of *Stellar Blade* and *Goddess of Victory: NIKKE* in a fun and imaginative way.

Stellar Blade & NIKKE Collaboration Trailer Released

SHIFT UP recently unveiled the official trailer for the *Goddess of Victory: NIKKE* collaboration DLC on YouTube, and it didn't take long for fans to notice the standout moment: the animated debut of Doro. Known across online communities as a fan-created chibi-dog version of Dorothy from *NIKKE*, Doro appears in the trailer fully animated, interacting with *Stellar Blade*'s protagonist Eve. The short but memorable scene features Doro running around, striking poses, and ending with an iconic laugh that’s sure to resonate with longtime followers of the meme.

Doro’s Origins and Popularity

Doro began as a humorous fan art interpretation of Stella Unibell from the game *Soulworker*, stylized into a cute chibi-dog form. The meme was later adopted by Korean *NIKKE* communities, where it evolved into "Dororong"—a playful version of *NIKKE*'s Dorothy. Her chaotic charm and adorable design earned her the nickname “Gremlin Dorothy,” and she eventually gained popularity beyond the *NIKKE* fandom.

Her influence even reached SHIFT UP’s CEO, Kim Hyung Tae, who was spotted with a festive Doro plush during Christmas 2023. While the exact role of Doro in the *Stellar Blade* collaboration remains under wraps, fans are thrilled—and slightly baffled—at this surreal yet fitting inclusion.

Collaboration Launch Date and New Features

The *Stellar Blade x NIKKE* crossover is set to launch on **June 11**, coinciding with the release of the game’s PC version. According to the official website, the DLC will introduce a variety of new gameplay elements and themed rewards:

• New Boss Battle: Players will face off against Scarlet, a warrior from the *NIKKE* universe, in a one-on-one showdown. Defeating her unlocks exclusive in-game rewards such as a new costume, hairstyle, and music track for Eve.
• NIKKE-Themed Mini-Game: Inspired by *NIKKE*’s sci-fi shooter gameplay, this mini-game adds a fresh twist to the experience.
• Themed Rewards Shop: Run by Volt, NIKKE’s robotic companion, the shop offers themed outfits and cosmetic items.
• Fishing Minigame: Players can collect six exclusive NIKKE-themed items while enjoying a relaxing break from combat.

While specific details about the cosmetic items and other rewards have not been officially revealed, fans are eagerly anticipating what this collaboration will bring to both games.
