To all FF fans and NieR fans:

To celebrate the release of FFXV, we’ve decided on a collaboration with NieR! Noctis’ “Engine Blade” will appear in NieR:Automata! It will be really interesting to see what sort of moves it will have! Actually, not even I know everything about it yet, but I’m sure it will be awesome. Just like all of you, I’m really looking forward to it.

And also, FFXV will get “something” from NieR! But we’ll talk more about it later! So, while you’re having fun playing the soon-to-be-released FFXV, I hope you also look forward to NieR:Automata! ーTabata Hajime

FFXV and NieR:Automata to Collaborate Together

Word has just dropped today that both Final Fantasy XV and NieR:Automata will collaborate together to offer in-game items or other related materials. Exactly what they intend to take from NieR:Automata has not yet been stated, but we’ve just learned that 2B will get to use Noctis’ “Engine Blade”.

The weapon will come with some unique dodging effects when it’s equipped. Not only will the model be directly imported from FFXV, but the inside scoop suggests that its effects and damage numeric value will transfer over as well. Additionally, since all weapons in NieR also come with a Weapon Story, the import of the Engine Blade will be no different. Just imagine what stories it has to impart with us!

The December 8 Issue of Famitsu magazine to be published on Thursday, November 24 will have more information regarding this breaking story. Here’s a little teaser image that they posted:
