  • SR Pascal: This support-type machine lifeform provides continuous HP restoration and rocket launcher attacks.
  • NieR:Automata Grand Collaboration Event Rerun – OuteR:Automata: A D-Wave phenomenon recurs in a Surface factory, sending the Commander and Counters to investigate.
  • New & Returning Outfits: Both 2B and A2 receive brand-new outfits, and original collaboration costumes are also available again for a limited time.

Goddess of Victory: Nikke is available now on PC and mobile platforms.
