Both the Japanese and global versions of the mobile game Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent are getting crossover events with Square Enix games, with the former getting FFVI characters and the latter finally experiencing the NieR Replicant event. The Japanese collaboration starts September 25, 2025, then ends on October 9, 2025. NetEase noted the English one kicked off on September 4, 2025, and that will last until October 2, 2025.
This is one of multiple NieR crossovers in Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent, as an Automata one appeared ahead of Replicant. For this one, Nier, Kaine, and Emil are all present. Each of them appear as the versions of themselves from the second part of the game. There are no English trailers for the event, but you can see the Japanese ones from when it ran back in February 2024 below.
