Infinity Nikki has two primary types of battles: fighting monsters and participating in fashion battles across Miraland. While most enemies in the open world are easy to defeat with a single blow, combat in the game remains relatively straightforward. When facing off against bosses, the key is to avoid their attacks to prevent taking damage and to strike back when you have an opening.

Perfectly dodging and attacking at the right moments will allow you to deal significant damage. After a few well-timed hits, the bosses become much easier to defeat.

Apart from fighting enemies, fashion battles are a crucial component of this open-world gacha game. While you won’t need to level up your outfits for general combat, they are essential for winning fashion battles. Each outfit piece has stats attached to it, such as Elegant, Sweet, Cool, Fresh, and more.

Outfit sets typically focus on a particular stat. This means all the pieces in the set will emphasize that stat. For instance, an outfit set centered around the “Sweet” stat will ensure that all its components also prioritize that attribute.

Additionally, each stat is ranked from D to SS, with D being the lowest and SS being the highest. Some outfits may even emphasize two different stats. At the beginning of each fashion battle, the theme will reveal which stat is required. For example, if “Cool” is the needed stat, you should equip an outfit that boosts that stat as much as possible.

Since you can build custom outfits and save them, you have the flexibility to mix and match pieces to maximize your chosen stat. Additionally, you can enhance outfits through the Glow-up tab, which allows you to unlock alternate looks for your pieces and improve their stats.

Apart from the outfit pieces, you can equip various Eureka items and Accessories to Nikki. These items provide additional stats, with some significantly boosting a specific stat. Accessories come in different styles, while Eureka items can typically be equipped on Nikki’s hands, head, or feet.
