Nier: Automata is one of the most popular action-adventure titles of all time and is single-handedly responsible for elevating the name and status of Yoko Taro to a whole new level. The director behind the Drakengard and Nier series finally got his big break after a solid pair-up with PlatinumGames helped the director finally achieve his vision in the best way possible.
At the heart of this game is its cast of lovable characters, including the legendary 2B who has pretty much become the face of this game due to her strong storyline and likable personality. Modders have gone above and beyond when it comes to integrating this character in other titles, with the best of the bunch being mentioned below.
10 2B Claire (Resident Evil 2)
The Resident Evil remakes have been a great way for old fans to relive the experience of playing these survival horror titles, while new fans had the perfect entry point into this series. The Resident Evil 2 remake is the best of the bunch and features its fair share of mod support as well.
One such mod changes Claire's costume to make her look more like 2B. It's a small but unique change that makes the experience of playing through Claire's campaign slightly more novel and interesting.
9 2B Face Preset (Fallout 4)
Bethesda games are known for having highly active modding communities that alter each and every aspect of these games. This particular mod lets players roleplay as 2B in Fallout 4.
It's a small change, but some fans who love both Nier: Automata and Fallout 4 will have a great time with this mod. Searching around for more mods might even let players wield her weapons in the game too!
8 YoRHa No.2 Type B (Dark Souls 3)
Playing as 2B in Dark Souls 3 is bound to be engaging. Both games are riveting action adventures set in destroyed worlds where enemies can easily wipe the floor with players who aren't ready to deal with these onslaughts.
The Fallen Knight armor set is replaced with 2B's iconic look through this mod, allowing players to roleplay as this beloved character. It's a simple yet great mod for players who enjoy these kinds of crossovers.
7 2B (Monster Hunter: World)
Monster Hunter: World is the game responsible for catapulting the popularity of the series to new heights. The game boasts an amazing player base to this day, and PC gamers can make use of mods to improve upon this experience even more!
Players who want to fulfill their fantasy of controlling 2B as she slashes down the most powerful monsters in the game will have a ton of fun with this mod. It adds her iconic armor along with her hairstyle to let players roleplay as this iconic action hero.
6 2B Jill Mod (Resident Evil 3)
The Resident Evil 3 remake wasn't as hotly received as Resident Evil 2, but it's still a fun game to play through regardless. This brief but action-packed experience can also have its replayability enhanced with the use of mods.
One such mod turns Jill into the spitting image of 2B. It's a simple character swap that lets players roleplay as this android in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.
5 YoRHa No.2 Type B From Soul Calibur 6 (Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice)
Another FromSoftware game that has seen 2B added into it through mods is Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. This model of 2B is taken from her appearance as a playable fighting character in Soul Calibur 6. Roleplaying as 2B while sneaking around and slicing through enemies is a blast. It helps that 2B's model is pretty detailed and helps her fit snugly in this world.
4 Nier Automata 2B Model Replacement (Dark Souls)
The final FromSoftware game to appear on this list is the original Dark Souls. This game was nothing short of a masterpiece that placed Hidetaka Miyazaki in the limelight and helped the company become the gaming powerhouse that they are today.
Just like Dark Souls, Nier: Automata was an important game for Yoko Taro as well. So, it's only fitting that these two games have an unofficial crossover through the use of mods. The armor sets that are replaced include the Wanderer Armor set and the Thief Black Armor Set.
3 Nier Automata 2B - RaceMenu Preset v2 (The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim)
Skyrim is a game known for the sheer craziness afforded by its mods. So, it's no surprise that 2B has been added to the game through mods too.
This character preset is a great way to kickstart the heroine's journey in the wondrous land of Skyrim. An android who slays dragons might not be lore-friendly, but the sheer awesomeness of it all more than makes up for it.
2 2B (Monster Hunter Rise)
Another Monster Hunter game makes its way to this list, and this time it's the most recent release in the series. The innovations Monster Hunter Rise made to its traversal mechanics make for a fresh change of pace from the usually rigid movement seen in previous games in the series.
So, it makes sense for a highly mobile character like 2B to be modded into this game too. It's a small change but makes for a ton of fun, especially if fans love both games and what they have to offer.
1 Playable 2B (Code Vein)
Code Vein is a pretty great game, and simply calling it an anime Soulslike might be doing it a minor disservice. However, there's no denying that this explanation is a pretty justified one in many ways.
So, it only makes sense for 2B to appear in this universe as well. Slicing and dicing through enemies with the flashy moveset of Code Vein is pretty neat as is, but using 2B to dish out said damage makes it even more memorable.
