After contacting the support team for Infinity Nikki, excited fans received an answer that Giovanni will feature in an upcoming storyline in the near future. While players have had mixed thoughts about the story in Infinity Nikki, they have praised the way NPCs were handled over the course of the narrative. Characters such as Giovanni, Raggy, Aderinna, and the Banshee have all left an impression on the community, and most recently, Marques Jr. Had a major role to play during the Carnival of Fireworks.
While Momo in Infinity Nikki exists in a tier of his own, the broody and morally complex Giovanni has captured the heart of many a fan. Born as Griffith Cicchetto, Giovanni is a Stylist from Stoneville who was captured by the Faewish Sprite Paladins and spent the next fifteen years in captivity, separated from his sick grandfather. He is directly responsible for pulling Nikki into the world of Miraland by using the Aureum Vase to wish for a power to defeat Chigda, the corrupt lord of the Faewish Sprites who personifies the seven deadly sins.
Infinity Nikki Leak Reveals 4-Star Banner Outfits for Update 1.2
A recent leak in the Infinity Nikki community gives players a thorough look at the upcoming 4-Star outfits for Update 1.2, including their Evolutions.
An Infinity Nikki player named Present_Bend_3994 contacted support about the disappearance of Giovanni from the game world, as other NPCs in the game can still be found in their designated areas. Following the completion of Chapter 8, Giovanni should have left for Cicchetto Manor, which remains mysteriously empty. However, the support team answered his absence was intended, and that Giovanni would return for a new storyline in a future Infinity Nikki update.
Infinity Nikki: When is Giovanni Coming Back?
The earliest possible return for Giovanni is Update 1.3, which may be adding housing to Infinity Nikki as well. As a Wishfield character, the developers will likely want to feature the next chapter of Giovanni's tale before moving on to a new region. If he isn't featured in Update 1.3, then the most plausible outcome would be for Giovanni to make an appearance sometime before Summer 2025, given the rapid release schedule of Infinity Nikki.
With Update 1.3 still a few weeks away, players can take their time to enjoy the fireworks in Infinity Nikki, as the latest update added a brand-new zone connected to Florawish. Much like the base game's open world, players can explore, solve puzzles, and gather collectibles, such as Dews of Firework and Whim Balloons on the Firework Isles. Update 1.2 for Infinity Nikki is expected to last until late February 2025, and will also receive a new set of 4-Star banners in the second half of the patch.
