While FuturLab’s PowerWash Simulator succeeded for many reasons upon its release back in 2022, one of its more interesting elements was the collaborations made between a ton of different and unexpected IPs. Alongside paid DLC which included Shrek’s swamp, Bikini Bottom and more, PowerWash simulator also offered two free crossover packs. Three years on from their initial release however, both the Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy VII DLCs are being delisted.

Taking to their blog to make the announcement, the team at FuturLab officially confirmed that “It is the last chance to get your gloves on the free Tomb Raider and Midgar Special Packs for PowerWash Simulator. At 3PM BST on May 19th 2026, these Special Packs will no longer be available to claim across all store fronts.”

As with most digital purchases however, those who already own the packs (or add them to their library soon) will be able to freely download and play them whenever.

It’s no coincidence that the two free crossover packs were related to Square Enix owned (or previously-owned) IPs, as the OG PowerWash Simulator was published by them. As expected however, given that its sequel was self-published, the deal between FuturLab and Square Enix has since ended, with the devs noting:

“Our team loved working on both of these beloved gaming IPs and we have been incredibly lucky to offer them until this point. This also coincides with the end of our formal relationship with Square Enix in June, who have been an incredible partner and have supported the publishing of PowerWash Simulator on PC and console.”

Given that these free DLCs are listed as separate products, it is worth adding both to your library even if you currently do not own PowerWash Simulator. There likely will never be another opportunity for you to scrub both the Croft Manor and Seventh Heaven otherwise.

For the past many years, Overwatch has been embracing all sorts of crossovers, from anime such as My Hero Academia to other video game IPs including Persona 5 and Diablo IV – to name a few. In a crossover which seemed inevitable, Square Enix’s NieR: Automata is set to collab with Overwatch; arriving next week.

Seemingly announcing the crossover prematurely, Blizzard published and then removed a YouTube Short confirming that “Project YoRHa initiates March 10!” – bringing a number of iconic characters from Automata into Overwatch through the release of new skins.

Based on the image shared, it appears as though 5 skins in total will be offered:

• Lifeweaver as Adam
• Vendetta as A2
• Wuyang as 9S
• Kiriko as 2B
• Mercy as the Yorha Commander

As of now, little else is known regarding the extent of this crossover. While it will most likely be nothing more than these skins, the game’s recent revamp does present an opportunity for these events to be more substantial.

We will have to wait and see when the Overwatch x NieR Automata crossover goes live on the 10th of March.
