Back when Square Enix announced the FFVII Ever Crisis NieR: Automata crossover it showed Tifa 2B and Yuffie 10H outfits right away, but only teased a Cloud 9S costume in a wallpaper. Now a new banner is live that confirms we can get his item and weapon until January 7, 2025.
The Cloud costume based on the 9S outfit in NieR: Automata is called Scanner Ensemble. That has the C Ability Ultra Gyral Slash that deals earth damage to one enemy and increases that elemental damage, and its R Abilities are Boost ATK (All Allies) and Scanner Goggles that boosts earth ability damage. He also gets a sword called Cruel Successor, which has the Gyral Slash C Ability and Boost PATK and Boost Earth Pot R Abilities. That weapon only inspired by the other game and doesn’t directly resemble any of the large swords from that game. That banner includes the Aerith Ultimate Weapon Abraxas as well.
It isn’t just a collection of costumes and weapons for Cloud, Tifa, and Yuffie based on 9S, 2B, and 10H in FFVII Ever Crisis right now, as there’s also the full NieR: Automata YoRHa No.2 Type B Intercept – Encounter in the City Ruins event. That includes a boss fight against 2B and Pod 042 based on her moveset from the original game.
FFVII Ever Crisis is available for the PC and mobile devices, and the NieR: Automata event runs between November 27, 2025 and January 7, 2026. NieR: Automata is available for the Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC, and the anime based on it is streaming on Crunchyroll.
