Final Fantasy 7 Ever Crisis is Getting the Inevitable NieR Automata Crossover
AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
NieR Automata's 2B is heading to Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis in a new crossover event featuring boss fights, abilities, and gacha-driven cosmetics for Tifa and Yuffie.
Square Enix is keeping up a legendary gaming tradition by sending 2B into yet another virtual world. This time, the iconic android is landing in Final Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis for a two-part event starting on November 27th. Players can jump into a dedicated boss fight and tackle panel missions to unlock the Whirling Ravager enemy ability, which brings some serious acrobatic offense to your loadout. Naturally, no modern crossover is complete without a wardrobe update, and this event delivers signature looks for both Tifa and Yuffie that feature the classic black attire and blindfolds alongside matching weapon skins.
As expected from a live-service mobile and PC title relying heavily on gacha mechanics, securing those cosmetics requires navigating the usual microtransactions. Square Enix is softening the blow slightly by offering ten free draws per day during the event, alongside a login bonus granting 3,000 blue crystals and a daily free crossover weapon draw. It is a welcome concession for players trying to deck out their party without draining their wallets on digital currency.
This collaboration continues an unstoppable trend for Yoko Taro's breakout hit. NieR Automata has officially become one of the most prolific crossover guests in the industry, popping up everywhere from Stellar Blade and Final Fantasy 14 to Soulcalibur 6. Original reporting by Connor Makar over at Eurogamer details all the upcoming event specifics, giving mobile and PC players plenty of reasons to dive back in while we all patiently wait for news of a proper mainline sequel in the franchise.
