Revision as of 06:18, 15 September 2016
Template:Infobox video game
NieR: Automata (with the title stylized as NieR) is an upcoming action adventure video game developed by Platinum Games and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation 4 and PC. It is the indirect sequel to both NieR RepliCant and NieR Gestalt (NIER), and is set around the year 11944, during the 14th Machine War.
Characters
It has been revealed that there are in fact three playable characters in this game:
- YoRHa No2 Type B (2B) - She is a female model android created by humans who fled to the Moon to avoid extinction by the Machines.
- YoRHa No9 Type S (9S) - Scanner type android who is best served when hacking, however he is still able to keep up with other close-range attackers. He has a very gentle and kind personality.
- YoRHa Type A No2 (A2) - She is a prototype model that was used in order to create the superior 2B and 9S. She doesn't like to speak and often keeps to herself.
- Emil (CV: Mai Kadowaki): A character who traveled with Nier in the previous game. While he has high magical power deep inside him, a large part of his memories have gone missing after many years have passed.
- Pod 042 & Pod 153 (CV: Hiroki Yasumoto, Kaoru Akiyama): Accompanying support units of YoRHa. They provide support with long-ranged attacks and mobility.
- Adam (CV: Daisuke Namikawa): A silver-haired young man whose identity is shrouded in mystery. He has a coolheaded temperament, but can take merciless actions for the sake of the objective.
- Eve (CV: Tatsuhisa Suzuki): Adam’s twin younger brother. He’s more simpleminded, and doesn’t really put much deep thought into things.
- Debol & Popol (CV: Ryoko Shiraishi): An old model android who can be found at the Resistance camp. They feel a sense of debt from the time they and several old-type androids from the time went reckless. They act as support for 2B and 9S.
- Pascal (CV: Aoi Yuki): In spite of being a Living Machine, Pascal is a pacifist. He’s highly intelligent, and has an interest in the history of humans and Living Machines.
- YoRHa Commander (CV: Chiaki Kano) The calm and composed general of a military base in orbit called “Bunker,” who commands all YoRHa units. She has a connection to the YoRHa prototype that is A2.
- Operator 60 & Operator 210 (CV: Keico Isoi, Meari Hatsumi): Communication operators of Bunker, who provide the YoRHa with information analysis and messages from the commander. They’re said to have different personalities for each individual.
Gameplay
The gameplay will be a hybrid between NieR/Drakengard and Platinum Games' style of gameplay (i.e. Bayonetta)
Development
TBA
Notes
- Some characters from NieR RepliCant and NieR Gestalt will appear in this game but not as primary characters.
- There will not be a split release like that of NieR RepliCant and NieR Gestalt.
- The game is said to take place some time after Ending D of NieR but is not directly after the events of the first game.[1]
- Emil and other unspecified minor characters will make appearances, and previous main characters will be mentioned.[1]
- Unlike with Ending D from the original NieRs, there will be no player choices that lead to the deletion of all save files.
- The Celestial Alphabet displayed at the end of video translates to "Androids, Humans, Robots". An alternative reading, according to Dengeki Online, translates to "Angels, Humans, Robots", however this looks more unlikely with the revelation of the full working title "NieR: Automata".
- The story as revealed so far bears a striking resemblance to the plot of Yoko's stage play, "YoRHa".[2]
YoRHa Intro Summary (by Fire Sanctuary): During the 14th Machine Armament War in the year 11,941AD, humans are near extinction. With the invasion of the “Living Machines”, humanity had no choice but to abandon the planet, taking refuge upon the Moon. Their only hope lie in an armada of specially configured androids called “YoRHa”. Programmed with human emotions and feelings, they descend upon the surface of the planet to combat the ceaseless onslaught of the Machines.
With the destruction of YoRHa No1 in the descent to the planet, No2 assumes command over all units… however reluctant and unsure of her own abilities. She remains this way throughout the entity of the play; she keeps her black “visor” on the longest…only taking it off in the final scene when she faces the machines on her own.
No2, after witnessing the destruction of her unit and the last of the Resistance, a failed YoRHa expedition hundreds of years before her time, is alone among a cold, unfeeling world ruled by machines.
