About NieR: Automata

Machines from another world have forced humanity off the Earth. To retake the planet, the surviving resistance dispatches android soldiers. You follow the androids 2B, 9S and A2 as they fight in a war between machines and androids, one that slowly reveals a long-forgotten truth about the world.

Battles mix melee and ranged attacks against crowds of enemies and large bosses, across open field maps. You can combine light and heavy attacks, switch between weapons and dodge at speed. RPG elements round it out: you gather different weapon types, level up, learn new combat skills and build a loadout that fits your style.

A support Pod follows you. It can shoot in manual and lock-on modes, helps you glide through the air outside combat, and can be upgraded during the game. If you are new to action games, an Auto Mode handles attacks and evasions for you.
