He got killed in action by Bastion. Bastion better be destroyed yet. I hope so! A writer had to choose Nightcrawler better than others. I can not believe it is him! I love him. He doesn't deserve to die being an X-Man, good person, and a family to the X-Men. 

Kurt's soul seems to still be making a lot of regular appearances in Wolverine, and looks to be tasked with being his guardian angel.
Death wasn't strong enough to stop Kurt apparently.

Why create a new thread to lament the death of a character who died last year?  Look in his forum & join in the threads there, instead of creating a duplicate.
