Infinity Nikki Might Bring Back a Controversial Currency in Version 1.5


Summary

  • Infold Games may reintroduce Limited-Time Revelation Crystals to Infinity Nikki in Version 1.5, sparking controversy.
  • Limited-Time Revelation Crystals were datamined for Version 1.5, possibly as a temporary currency.
  • Version 1.5 of Infinity Nikki is expected to launch on April 28, with potential new features like housing and dyes.

Recent datamining in Infinity Nikki has sparked a heated debate in its community, as there is a chance that Infold Games may be bringing Limited-Time Revelation Crystals back for Version 1.5. Though Infinity Nikki had a successful launch in December 2024, and the developers followed it up with a string of exciting updates, it also had its fair share of controversies at launch. Perhaps the biggest and most notable example was the introduction of Limited-Time Revelation Crystals in Version 1.0.

As a gacha game, banners play an important role in Infinity Nikki. While content is designed in a way that allows players to complete it with free outfits, premium cosmetics have always had a strong appeal. These cosmetics can only be obtained by spending Diamonds on Revelation Crystals, which count as a pull on the Limited Banners in Infinity Nikki. While these crystals are permanent, Version 1.0 introduced a type of Revelation Crystals that expired after the patch ended. This decision was met with harsh criticism by Infinity Nikki fans, and Infold shelved the concept in subsequent updates.

Infinity Nikki may be loading the dice against certain outfit pieces, as the game’s client calculates its gacha odds differently than described.

Curiously, Limited-Time Revelation Crystals were datamined for Version 1.5 by RaenoX and shared on the Infinity Nikki Leaks subreddit. However, there are a few very important things to keep in mind. The item description for Limited-Time Revelation Crystals explicitly mentions that they can be used during Version 1.5 and does not imply that they will have a purpose going forward. RaenoX has previously datamined Epiphany Crystals, which was officially confirmed as a new currency for Infinity Nikki ahead of the 4-Star banners for Version 1.4.

Infinity Nikki: Version 1.5 May Have Limited-Time Currency

While Epiphany Crystals are very much real, Limited-Time Revelation Crystals may either be exclusive to Version 1.5 or Infold may choose to shelve the concept altogether. Version 1.5 is assumed to be a hefty update, as players expect that it will introduce housing and dyes to Infinity Nikki via its Serenity Island. As such, some fans speculate that Infold could be planning to hand out a generous sum of Revelation Crystals in a way that doesn’t break its planned level of scarcity.

Despite being in the Top 20 in gacha earnings, it’s no secret that Infinity Nikki wants to expand its audience further. Version 1.5 could be the perfect way to do it, whether with limited-time currency or not. Given how fans feel about Limited-Time Revelation Crystals, Infold will likely navigate the situation with care, as it has proven to be quite receptive to player feedback, whether by making quality-of-life changes in Infinity Nikki, or by addressing the costs of store-exclusive outfits. Version 1.5 is expected to launch on April 28.
