Less than a year after its launch, the controversial Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile has announced that it will be shutting down. Meanwhile, 2019’s Call of Duty: Mobile continues to thrive with countless content updates, crossovers and more. In a move which should be far from surprising at this point, the queen of crossovers – 2B from NieR: Automata – is coming to COD Mobile.
Releasing a teaser trailer, the official COD Mobile YouTube channel confirmed that 2B is set to join Call of Duty Mobile as a new operator, writing “Built for war. Designed with purpose.”
Going live alongside Season 5 of COD mobile on the 28th of May, this crossover is a rather meaty one, with the team stating:
“The new Battle Pass brings a collection of Operator Skins, Weapon Blueprints, and more with a futuristic dystopian theme inspired by the season’s collaboration with NieR: Automata, including a themed event featuring the Kui Ji – YoRHa No. 9 Type S operator and two Draws featuring the operators Kestrel – YoRHa No. 2 Type B and Fiona St. George – Commander White.”
Beyond cosmetics, the crossover also brings with it a new limited time game mode, writing “Complete objectives to earn action points which can be spent to move through a branching path. Reach checkpoints, navigate counterattack routes, and collect Skill Chips to unlock exclusive routes. Conduct the counterattack successfully to earn rewards like the Kui Ji – YoRHa No. 9 Type S operator and four different melee weapons themed around NieR.”
As mentioned, NieR / 2B have crossed over with countless other properties since the release of Automata back in 2017 – with just some of the collabs including but not limited to: Soul Calibur; Granblue Fantasy Versus; Gravity Rush 2; Stellar Blade; Fall Guys; PUBG; The First Descendant and MANY more.
While Call of Duty Mobile was already doing perfectly fine on its own, this latest crossover could see a not-so-insignificant number of new fans join in on the fray. Season 5 of Call of Duty Mobile goes live this Wednesday.
