Shura, why not?

Modders have transplanted countless characters, and while the results are often little more than achuckle-inducing novelty, sometimes their move just fundamentallyworks. I don’t know howNieR: Automata‘s 2B would end up on a hard-fought quest sneaking through picturesque Ashina, but in my mind–if I don’t think too hard about the particulars–this mash-up makes a weird sort of sense.

Thanks toSekiromodder Forsakensilver, you’re able to put Wolf on the bench and play as 2B instead. Before you race to start up this video,a note on spoilers: the first minute and a half are safe, as only the introductory sequence is shown. After that, there’s a montage of boss after boss until the game’s final fight. I don’t want to be the jerk who inadvertently spoiledSekiro‘s coolest encounter for you.

With that in mind, dang, this 2B montage makes me want to playSekiroagain, and I say that as someone who’s lost count of how many times they’ve beaten it. The new-game-plus loop is too fun!

Now that we’re properly pumped to pull off some shinobi deathblows as 2B, here’s how to get theNieR: Automatamod running inSekiroas relayed by Nexus Mods user asasasasasbc:

2B is too strong a character to star in a single game.Automatafans clearly aren’t ready to say goodbye,and with four million sales and counting, who knows what the future holds for Yoko Taro and co.
