Babylon’s Fall has yet to be released, however ahead of the game’s 3rd of March release date developer PlatinumGames has announced that Babylon’s Fall will be getting crossover content with NieR: Automata.
Early impressions of Babylon’s Fall have been somewhat negative, with overall interest towards the upcoming co-op action RPG seeming to be quite low. For the more than 6 million NieR: Automata fans who purchased the also-PlatinumGames developed title, however, a new incentive has been announced.
PlatinumGames has now announced that as part of Season 1 of Babylon’s Fall, the game will see a crossover event which changes the headquarters to be NieR: Automata themed, and will also include a NieR themed dungeon and NieR cosmetic rewards. Season 1 of Babylon's Fall will be free for all those buying the game, meaning that no content should be gated…hopefully.
NieR: Automata is one of Square Enix’s hottest properties, with 2B and friends crossing over in some capacity with over a dozen franchises, including Dragon Quest; Monster Hunter; Phantasy Star; Gravity Rush; Soul Calibur; Fall Guys and Final Fantasy.
While it may feel like a cheap tactic by some, the collaboration is likely to draw more eyes towards Babylon’s Fall. Hopefully the game ends up being good.
