Interception is the name of a gameplay mode in Goddess of Victory: Nikke, and is the primary way to acquire high-level equipment for Nikkes.
Overview[]
Interception involves the player controlling a squad of Nikkes to fight against a boss and achieve the highest score possible, if not defeat the boss. Interception battles have no time limit, it will simply go until one side is defeated, after which score is recorded and rewards are calculated. Players are allotted three plays of Interception per day, which can be distributed across the various modes. Playing at least one round of Interception unlocks Quick Battle for that level, allowing the player to skip additional battles and simply be rewarded based on their previous score.
New Interception levels will be unlocked as the player progresses through the campaign.
Mock Battle[]
Following the Bunny X 777 update, Mock Battle was added to Interception. This is functionally the same as Mock Battles in Union Raid and Solo Raid, acting as a practice mode where players can test lineups and strategies without consuming attempts. As with other modes, score will not be recorded when playing Mock Battle, thus no rewards will be distributed nor will Quick Battle be unlocked.
