NieR: Automata anime series
The NieR Automata game is available to play on PlayStation, Xbox and PC and allows players to take control of combat androids from the YoRHa and is set in an open world ready to explore.
“Nier: Automata shares the post-apocalyptic setting of Nier, taking place thousands of years after the game’s fourth ending. The universe of Nier takes place in an alternate timeline within the Drakengard series. While carrying over the Drakengard tradition of a dark atmosphere and branching storylines, no direct narrative connection is shared between Nier: Automata and the rest of the series.”
“Pitted in an unrelenting war against extraterrestrial machines for the fate of humanity and whose lives are irrevocably transformed through the discovery of a terrible secret.”
