Square Enix today announced that the upcoming highly anticipated Action-RPG, NieR: Automata, will be available on Steam globally beginning March 17, 2017.
Developed in collaboration with PlatinumGames Inc., NieR: Automata tells the story of androids 2B, 9S, and A2, and their ferocious battle to reclaim a machine-driven dystopia abandoned by humankind and overrun by machine lifeforms.
Those who pre-purchase the Steam Day One Edition will receive an exclusive “Valve Character Accessory,” as well as other Day One Edition bonus content, including the Machine Mask Accessory, Grimoire Weiss Pod, Retro Grey Pod Skin, Retry Red Pod Skin, and Cardboard Pod Skin.
About the Game:
Invaders from another world attack without warning, unleashing their secret weapon: the machines. In the face of this insurmountable threat, the human race is driven from the earth and takes refuge on the moon.
The humans develop an army of android soldiers to fight back against the mechanical horde, but succeed only in slowing its advance. To break the deadlock, a new breed of android infantry is sent into the fray: the YoRHa squad.
In the forsaken wasteland below, the war between the machines and the androids rages on. A war that is soon to unveil the long-forgotten truth of this world…
Check out the Trailer:
“The way in which NieR: Automata approaches death stands out as one of the most memorable features in the game, so far. When you die, your body will remain on the floor until you return to that area. At this point, you’ll then have to decide what to do with the parts you left behind: salvage the components and attempt to struggle through the battle once again or, repair the debris and have it fight alongside you. This is such an interesting way to tackle a problem that all players will encounter at some point, ensuring that support is always an option for those that need it. Dying in battle usually proves to be an inconvenience in other games but rather than punish players for failing, Automata lends players a helping hand, in the form of a clone of yourself.”
