Phwoar, NieR: Automata is looking pretty fast and fluid, isn't it? The PlayStation 4 console exclusive really shines in parts of the gameplay video that we've embedded above, which clocks in at over 29 minutes in length. In it, we get to see android protagonist 2B partake in plenty of combat, general exploration, and side activities like fishing.
Automata's out early next month on Sony's system, but will you be buying it? Tell 2017 to slow down in the comments section below.

Can't wait, it looks like one of those 7 or 8 out of 10 games that I'm going to love. I really can't explain why I'd want this over Horizon as on paper Horizon has it beat in every department... except perhaps soul??
I hope this game can be as good as bayonetta 2, finally us ps4 owners can have A-tier platinum gameplay
I really want cheaper special edition with steelbook and artbook (like horizon r3 se), this game black box edition is too expensive
@TrueAssassin86x I'd drop Mass Effect from that list unless you enjoy supporting proud openly racist developers.
So soon after Zelda and Horzion, there is so many great games this year.
There are simply too many amazing games that I want and that are coming out at the same time... And in the meantime Nioh is even better than I expected...
I need to quit my job to be able to play them all. Greatness arrived!!
Is there anyone out there that thinks this game is kind of meh? xD After playing the demo I couldn't think of anything else besides the meh feeling...the combat is great but everything else feels kind of mediocre to be honest!
Well, let's wait and see...
Well, after stepping out of the gaming world for a while, I decided to pick up a PS4 Pro the other day. 2017 was just looking too good to pass up.
One of my first tasks when booting it up was to head to the store and see what demos were available. I remember thinking "Hmmm, I think I've heard about this Nier game but don't really know anything about it - why not try it?". Little did I know that the demo would completely win me over and have me wanting this game more than anything else on the horizon right now.
The controls, art style, music, etc...are really exquisite. The pacing is also perfect - they seem like they know how to switch things up just enough so that it stays fresh and exciting.
@AFCC
I feel the same way after playing the demo and watching this. There is some charm to it I guess but I'm pretty much sure by now this one will not for me.
@Alstil Yeah the demo was very impressive, took me from not giving a damn to day one. Usually demos put me off games, oddly enough.
@kyleforrester87 I think they made the right choice in choosing a high drama section of gameplay that's apparently from the around the middle of the game. No fluff or intro type stuff - just meant to let you experience a high point in the game.
@Alstil clever use of horizon.
This demo definitely put this in my must buy this year. What a year for ps4.
@Elodin Ha! I knew I was clever. Totally intentional (I wish).
My most hyped game of 2017, truly. I don't know why... But I just love this game. However, there are way too many games right now, so I had to cancel my Mass Effect pre order, I'll get it on sale later. It doesn't interest me like the old trilogy did. The new characters look a bit rubbish.
@Lurker THANK YOU! All I see in here is hype hype hype and I can't see why xD
@AFCC it's hard to explain why, it just seems like "the package" lol
@GBMatthew ??? Where is this coming from?
@kyleforrester87 fair enough xD
I think the game is cool, don't get me wrong, I just don't feel the hype for it! I'll probably pick it up on sale later anyway
@smythelove Just start here and the rabbit hole gets very deep. https://twitter.com/manveerheir/status/656302806496886784?lang=en
@TrueAssassin86x Why even bother replying if that's the best you've got to add.
@GBMatthew Twitter, the truth in alternative facts. Hey, I'm all for checking up on companies I buy from, but your link goes to a cluster F of stuff. Source checked info would be great, if you can provide it.
@starhops There is plenty of genuine factual info out there just google it if your that interested. Why are people so lazy?
Nice. I had been wondering about the RPG elements of the game. The awesome fighting I already could partially experience in the demo. Think I will pick this up once I'm done with horizon. Yay!
