Nier: Automataby developers PlatinumGames intrigued players everywhere when it released for PlayStation and PC on 20 July 2025 and even today, gamers hold this critically-acclaimed action role-playing title to high regard. Thankfully, the Xbox One folk got their chance to see what the fuss was about toowhen a portcame to the Microsoft platform in June last year.

Probably the most recognizable character inNier: Automatais 2B - a YoRHa android created to battle the machine lifeforms that have invaded the planet on behalf of the surviving humans.

We see shirogane sport 2B’s iconic eyewear which is referred to as a “military visor” or “goggles.” in the game that apparently allows 2B and other YoRHa units to see things that they wouldn’t normally be able to see that help them in battle situations. In the game, 2B rarely removes this, but here we can get an idea on how 2B would look without them.

Shirogane does an impeccable job at delving into the persona of 2B, even recreating 2B’s dress herself which looks like it would be an extremely time-consuming job, but like everything Shirogane does - who hails from Russia - she makes it look effortless and professional.

If you happen to be on the cosplay scene, you’ll know Shirogane is no stranger to cosplaying as many different characters. One of her most renown costumes is that of her incrediblePersona 5effort in 2017 when she took on the role of Ann. It was so good that it even got a featured spot inKotaku.
