NieR Automata, Replicant Characters Join Rainbow Six Siege in Crossover No One Saw Coming

In what is truly one of the more bizarre crossovers we have seen in recent times, characters from esoteric action RPGs NieR: Replicant and NieR: Automata are making the jump to competitive, team-based FPS Rainbow Six: Siege.

The unnamed protagonist of Replicant, and his fast-talking, bookish companion, Grimoire Weiss, will be available as a part of the Maverick Replicant Bundle, which itself will be available once Siege’s Year 7 Season 4 content update goes live. We also get a brief tease of a YoRHa soldier at the end; presumably, Automata protagonist 2B will also make an appearance.

The full reveal for both is set for 22nd November, with a digital panel showing off all the new content coming to the game. What do you think of this seemingly bizarre crossover? Become as human in the comments section below.
