Synopsis of 'NieR:Automata':

The narrative of 'NieR:Automata' revolves around the androids 2B, 9S, and A2, who find themselves in a battle to reclaim a dystopia controlled by machines and infested with powerful mechanical entities. Humanity, in turn, has been banished from Earth by the mechanical beings from another world. Then, in a last-ditch effort to reclaim the planet, the human resistance dispatches a team of android soldiers with the objective of annihilating the invaders. Thus, a continuous war between machines and androids unfolds, poised to reveal a long-forgotten truth about the world.

Therefore, the direction is by Ryouji Masuyama (Blend S, Hello WeGo!) at A-1 Pictures studio, CG by Yuusuke Noma, and cinematography by Toshiaki Aoshima. NieR:Automata was released for PlayStation 4 in Japan in 2017. Furthermore, Square Enix released the game on PC in March 2017 and on Xbox One in June 2018.
Finally, Crunchyroll streams the first season with subtitles and dubbing.
