Stellar Blade x NIKKE DLC Trailer Unveiled

Doro Makes a Surprise Appearance!

In a delightful twist, Doro pops up at the trailer's end, engaging in a brief yet charming interaction with Stellar Blade's protagonist, Eve. Fully animated and brimming with energy, Doro performs various poses, dashes around, and concludes the trailer with a contagious laugh.

The origin of this meme traces back to fan art featuring Stella Unibell from "Soulworker" as a chibi-dog, which gained traction in Korean NIKKE forums. It later morphed into "Dororong" when applied to NIKKE's Dorothy, capturing hearts worldwide with its chaotic yet endearing persona, also known as "Gremlin Dorothy." The meme's influence even extended beyond the NIKKE community.

Interestingly, Doro's charm reached SHIFT UP's CEO, Kim Hyung Tae, and his wife, who were seen with a Christmas-themed Doro plush in 2024. While Doro's exact role in the collaboration remains a mystery, fans are thrilled and amused by this quirky addition.
