NieR Automata is a game that by all rights should not exist- here we have an action RPG sequel to Yoko Taro’s cult hit, but ultimately commercially unsuccessful, fan favorite RPG from last generation… and it’s co-developed by none other than Platinum Games, another fan favorite studio, no less. How did such a thing even happen?

How it happened is unknown, but it did. NieR Automata is almost here, and fans are undoubtedly ravenous to see all that it has to offer. If you want to play through the game, and know what the best way is to make your way through its story, we’ve got your back. Our video walkthrough will take you through the game’s entire story, as well as its ending.

Just, of course, remember that there will be full spoilers for the game here. So, you know, if you would rather go into the game blind, don’t watch this. Although if that’s the case, I don’t know why you clicked on this post at all…
