The original NieR launched way back in 2010, and despite middling reviews at the time, it gained a cult following over the years. Like many, my introduction to the franchise was with the near (no pun intended) perfect NieR Automata: a cocktail of amazing gameplay, stunning world design, and an emotionally charged story. Whilst Automata was my introduction to the franchise I didn’t go in completely blind, researching the insane and ridiculously complicated and convoluted bit lovable and enga...

There aren’t many games like NieR Replicant, and I’m not just talking about in the modern era, but since 2010 as a whole. Whatever power that be helped Yoko Taro become world-famous, to the point where he can keep making these weird masterpieces, in any format: thank you.

NieR Replicant overall is a successful remaster, with a bit of spit and polish improving many facets of the original game, but with some of the negatives unfortunately carrying over as well. The end result is an action RPG that will keep most players entertained for many hours, as the story, combat, and characters outweigh the boredom of Replicant’s sometimes repetitive gameplay.

NieR Replicant was always an odd title that was great both in spite of and because of its limitations. Many of those oddities remain in Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139..., but it's a more refined experience on the whole that doesn't feel quite so awkward when placed alongside the superb NieR Automata. Now, if only they could get around to remaking the Drakengard series...

NieR Replicant is an enthralling experience that will keep you hooked with its mysterious plot and climactic boss battles. This is the version of the game you will want to play even if you played it over a decade ago.

As if to punctuate the protagonist’s time away from home, most loading screens are random journal entries from Yonah about her affection and longing for her brother. She wants to cook or sing for him, to repay all of his kindness and dedication. Replicant is a tender story of love between siblings and how devotion to a singular purpose can destroy and save the world in equal measure. They’re provocative existential questions worth exploring — if you have the patience to do the work. 7/10.

Soon, the weight of Yoko Taro will be unleashed upon the world once again, more so following on the heels of a new NieR raid in the hit MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, whose free trial, if you didn’t know already, goes up to Heavensward. Horrendously overused joke aside, the alleged upgrade to the original NieR Replicant, now known as NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… can be experienced by people all over the world on the PS4, Xbox One and PC via Steam – 22 April for Asia, 23 April in other ...

Nier Replicant’s bleak world is over a decade old (the original Nier released in 2010), and yet its morbid commentary on human frailty still resonates. This bittersweet narrative is supported by enhanced character models, satisfying hack-and-slash mechanics, and a haunting soundtrack that spins a riveting tale of its own. At the same time, outdated features that made the original game tedious to play remain present, and that’s because Nier Replicant is neither remake nor remaster of that 2010 title. Creative director Yoko Taro prefers the term “version upgrade,” and this moniker fits perfectly – for better and for worse.

Gamers weren't quite ready for Yoko Taro's NieR back in 2010, but now the now cult classic is getting another chance in the way it was originally intended. On top of additional content and bonuses not found in the original, NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139... features a beautifully melancholy narrative that is equal parts gut-wrenching and heartfelt, all of which is very worth experiencing.

NieR is a franchise with an interesting trajectory over the last decade. The original game released in 2010 and interestingly had two versions circling. To appeal more to Western audiences, players controlled a buff, brawny older character in the Gestalt version while Japan controlled a much younger version of the protagonist, Nier. It itself was a spin-off of the series Drakengard and despite a later indirect sequel in the hugely popular NieR Automata, it never saw vast commercial success ...

As a “Version Up” of the original Nier, Replicant Ver. 1.22 does a respectable job of updating the graphics and combat of the 2010 cult classic to a more modern standard by dramatically improving its environments, animations, and performance, while also going the extra mile and adding excellent voice acting to every single character in its world. It definitely shows its age in its combat and quest design, however, and while the improvements to combat certainly help smooth things out it still suffers from repetitive enemies, mundane sidequests, and a lack of evolution over the course of the 35 to...
