Nier Reincarnation has just announced its first crossover event with a game not owned by Square Enix. Starting on September 8, Nier Reincarnation will hold a collaboration event with Persona 5 Royal featuring the iconic characters Joker, Queen, and Fox.
Nier Reincarnation is a free-to-play JRPG, set in the Nier universe, but the protagonist’s background allows the player to meet a wide variety of characters from worlds outside of Nier and learn their stories. . The game launched worldwide with a crossover event with Nier Automata last August. After that, Reincarnation went on to host events in cooperation with Nier Replicant, Drakengard 3, and most recently Final Fantasy 14 this past May. Although Reincarnation has a long list of collaborations, the crossover event with Persona 5 marks the first time the game has teamed up with the same IP outside of Square Enix ownership.
The event will start on September 8 and will allow players to unlock Joker, Makoto, and Yasuke. And just like in previous crossover events, the characters will have short story missions.
