If you haven’t pulled the trigger on NieR: Automata yet, this is the time! As a brand new player, I feel ridiculous for waiting this long to dive in. Dearth of new content or not, the Game of The YoRHa edition is a terrific good time.

NieR:Automata remains one of the greatest games of this generation, if not of all time. And with all of the game's content available in one complete package, there's no excuse to not check it out now. If you're someone who already owns the game, however, the Game of the YoRHa Edition doesn't offer much for you to justify buying it again.

A fantastic mix of explosive action and thoughtful storytelling, that results in one of the most unpredictable and ambitious action role-players of the modern era.

NieR: Automata is spectacular. Beautiful, with a remarkable history, diverse collectibles and virtuous missions. However, the GOTY edition brings nothing beyond what has already been released. The DLC is hard and very fun, but it doesn't offer an innovative experience.

I'm shocked with the scope, the size, and the feel to a game that is now two years old (as of March 7th). It is still very much a unique title that offers up about everything you ever dreamed in one single experience. The fact that you'll want to replay it speaks volumes about what is in store for you. There aren't a lot of games that make you want to revisit them so quickly, but NieR: Automata is definitely one of them.

If you’re into hack-and-slash RPGs and don’t mind having to play through the game three times to experience the full story, give this game a shot.

NieR: Automata is a true masterpiece; the new content just strengthens an all-time classic.

With expectations checked, The End of YoRHa Edition still manages to impress by being a technical achievement. NieR: Automata was a game that struggled to run on much more powerful hardware and the fact that it can run as well as it does on Nintendo Switch is nothing short of a miracle.
