The Switch version will launch with some new features implemented and it will include all previously DLC content and exclusive costumes.


PlatinumGames have announced the new edition during the latest Nintendo Direct Mini partner showcase. Here’s a small excerpt from the press release:


“The critically acclaimed world of NieR: Automata invades Nintendo Switch!
