Synopsis
NieR:Automata's narrative revolves around androids 2B, 9S, and A2, who find themselves in a battle to reclaim a machine-controlled dystopia infested with powerful mechanical entities. Humanity, in turn, has been banished from Earth by mechanical beings from another world. In a last-ditch effort to reclaim the planet, the human resistance dispatches a team of android soldiers to annihilate the invaders. Thus, an ongoing 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 the A-1 Pictures , CG by Yuusuke Noma and photography by Toshiaki Aoshima. NieR: Automata was released for the PlayStation 4 in Japan in 2017. Additionally, Square Enix released the game on PC in March 2017 and on Xbox One in June 2018.
