Nier: Automata was one of 2017’s surprise hits. The action game earned fans with its melancholy world, memorable characters, and multiple endings. 2B is Nier: Automata’s main hero. She’s part of an android army that’s fighting a war against less-human-like machines. Nier: Automata shipped over 3 million copies.
Soulcalibur has a long history of introducing guest characters from other franchises, including Link from The Legend of Zelda and even Darth Vader from Star Wars. 2B is the second guest character for Soulcalibur VI. Geralt from The Witcher has been available since launch.
