During a livestream hosted by the Japanese magazine Dengeki PlayStation, Square Enix Producer Yosuke Saito and PlatinumGames Producer Eijiro Nishimura showcased the how NieR: Automata will support PS4
Final Fantasy XV truly feels like a labor of love by an extremely dedicated development team, that spared no effort to deliver the best experience possible. We really can’t wait to see the results on November 2
The demo for Nier: Automata follows two androids, 2B and 9S, inside of a massive abandoned weapons factory that is now run by machines . The player takes control of 2B as she (do androids have genders?) travels through this factory on a mission to take out a Goliath-class weapon. Immediately upon playing this demo the familiarity of its predecessor is apparent. 2B has a floating mechanical companion that can provide fire power assistance as she battles the robotic enemies as they shoot the familiar orb projectiles. Nier was no slouch with a sword, but watching 2B in melee combat is truly a thing of beauty as she is able to dispatch her enemies by using her blades with the finesse of a ballerina trained by ninjas. The explosive action on screen is accompanied by a beautiful choral infused soundtrack, which was one of the more memorable aspects of the original.
Another Pokémon is coming (well, technically two but…), and the content keeps piling up. From what we have seen so far, it’s destined to kick everyone’s rear in the fall Japanese charts for the traditional couple of months.
Crossovers with Phantasy Star Online 2 and Monster Hunter Frontier Z were also announced, with the implementation of equipment and quests dedicated to NieR: Automata . More details will be announced at a later d
Tokyo Game Show just closed the gates on its 2016 edition, and it was a great show. While it was a bit short on groundbreaking announcements, it had a very solid showing, with many games that will delight us in the next year or so, and most of them were playable on the show fl
Kadokawa Games brought the addictive concept of the ship girls to overwhelming success with Kantai Collection , and Starly Girls seems to have the full potential to translate that concept to mecha battles, creating another successful franch
The world of Nier: Automata appears to be more technologically advanced than its predecessor. This shouldn’t be too surprising as this title takes place 9929 years into the future, though things appear to have fallen into disrepair since the last time players got to visit this world. Instead of a wise cracking spell book 2B has a floating gun turret. The NPC android that assists 2B during her mission, 9S, has a pretty sweet flying apparatus that is equipped for battle. Humans are no longer on Earth, and the androids left behind are at war. The factory where the demo takes place is enormous, and is completely overrun by hostile machines.
When NieR: Automata was first announced , fans of the original game were excited to hear that the title was making an unexpected return thanks to Platinum Games. This week, Game Rant had a chance to go hands-on with an early build of Nier: Automata , speaking with the producers about how the sequel aims to fix the extensive gameplay problems of the original title, https://nierautomatafans.Com/ while expanding the lore and universe from the first NieR that fans seemed to systematically love more than crit
It’s always difficult to choose a clear winner in the ocean of mobile games releasing every year in Japan, yet, Starly Girls stands out among other things due to the absolutely charming character des
This year’s Square Enix E3 2016 presentation largely centered around Final Fantasy 15 , and rightfully so – the game took a decade to develop and has been heralded as one of the best JRPGs in recent memory. Unfortunately, however, and perhaps unjustly, that meant Platinum Games’ NieR: Automata took a backseat on the grandest gaming stage of them all. Ever since gamers caught a first look at NieR: Automata , they’ve been intrigued by NieR: Automata ‘s grim industrial world and mysterious android protagonist, and news about the upcoming title has been difficult to come
After that, more gameplay was showcased at the 00:28:20 mark, introducing some of the RPG element of the game, including the refugee camp that will serve as one of the settlements and a weapon shop, that incidentally sold weapons from the Drakengard series. Incidentally, the Engine Blade , coming from a collaboration with Final Fantasy XV, will be tied to a quest in the g
This award is also special, as it comes with a second meaning, representing our respect for taking a decision that certainly mustn’t have been easy, and that most studios and publishers probably wouldn’t have had the guts to take.
While the demo we played only featured one boss fight against a giant buzz saw contraption, gamers should expect many more large-scale boss battle segments littered throughout NeiR: Automata . On top of that, Saito also confirmed that there are more mounts aside of previously revealed deer and boars, commenting cryptically that not every mount may be an animal. The addition of several difficulty options this time around will also make for an easier playthrough experience, a sharp contrast from the difficult-by-default original NieR . The game will also feature an ‘Auto Mode’ for those who fail to progress through the action sequences but still want to experience the st
