Following the debut of itsnew traileratGamescom Opening Night Live 2024, Infinity Nikki has stolen the hearts of many cozy gamers - over 12,000,000, to be precise.

Headed byformer Breath of the Wild devKentaro Tominaga, Infinity Nikki is Infold Games' follow-up to a mind-bogglingly successful series of mobile dress-up games spanning over 12 years. I’ve spent enough time (and money) myself playing Love Nikki on my phone, so I’m stoked to see the game of my girly childhood dreams coming to fruition - as are millions of other prospective players, apparently.

As the devs reveal in a newannouncement, over 12,060,000 glamorous fans have signed up via the Infinity Nikki website to register their interest - including me, of course. “Thank you to all the stylists for your support and enthusiasm,” reads the devs' post. “There will be more surprises ahead - let’s aim for the next goal together.” That next goal is a whopping 20 million pre-registrations, after which we’ll unlock an adorable red dress.

I doubt it’ll be long before the goal is reached, though - according to thewebsite, an extra 300,000 fans or so have signed up since devs made their celebratory post after hitting over 12 million pre-registrations. It seems I’m not the only one with a GirlsGoGames-fueled interest indress-up games, after all. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got virtual fashion shows to attend and some very much-needed makeovers to give.

When she’s not frantically trying to form words into coherent sentences, she’s probably daydreaming about becoming a fairy druid and befriending every animal or she’s spending a thousand (more) hours traversing the Underdark in Baldur’s Gate 3. If you spot her away from her PC, you’ll always find Anna with a fantasy book, a handheld video game console of some sort, and a Tamagotchi or two on hand.
