Dataminers Find Nier Skins In PUBG
Much like Fortnite, PUBG: Battlegrounds is a battle royale that's no stranger to a good crossover. And a new datamine suggests that those crossovers aren't ending anytime soon.
PlayerIGN is a well-known PUBG leaker who's just posted several screenshots confirming what appears to be a Nier crossover. This crossover will contain new player skins, sprays, and cosmetics modeled after Nier characters, including 9S, 2B, Kaine, Nier, and Emil.

According to the datamine, the Nier crossover will arrive on April 1 in PUBG. Not sure if Nier quite compares to PUBG's other April Fools' Day crossovers, which as PCGamesN noted, have included the likes of Baby Shark. Nier seems downright tame in comparison.
Take a look at the images above to get a load of 2B and 9S in their PUBG form, which looks pretty much the same as their Nier: Automata form. Below you'll find Kaine and Nier, who are likewise looking stellar in their PUBG costumes.
PUBG isn't stopping at just Nier. PUBG Mobile recently announced it will host a crossover event for free-to-play cyber-ninja action game Warframe. Given how Warframe takes place an indeterminate number of centuries in the future, it's pretty striking to see Warframe's elaborate and often ornate characters appearing in the homely battlefields of PUBG Mobile.
PUBG Mobile offered neither date nor details for the Warframe crossover event, so stay tuned in-game for more info.
