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.

The sequel to Yoko Taro's cult hit is a beautifully frenetic hack-and-slasher with an engrossing and layered story.

Nier Automata finally arrives to Xbox One, including every DLC released, and with improved resolution for Xbox One X. It is one of the greatest J-RPG of the generation: difficult, rewarding and with great characters.

As good as it was on PS4,, but with a bit more content and cheaper. A win-win situation despite its delay.

NieR: Automata is a masterclass action game with deep RPG mechanics, and a beautiful open world. While it's held back by a weak narrative and a clunky game format that mandates replaying hours of content, it offers a wide variety of enjoyable experiences that make it well worth the asking price.

There is a ton to see and do in Nier: Automata. Talking about much of it does it a disservice to the player.

XBox One owners have no excuse to miss out on this game. It is one of the best examples of video games as a medium of entertainment and needs to be played by every person possible. I cannot stress enough how important this game is, or how good it is.

If you love a great story told with devastating style, you need to play through Nier Automata several times.

NieR: Automata is without a doubt one of the best games of the generation and it's likely going to remain one of my personal favorite games ever.

NieR Automata is now available for Xbox One, and this news should be enough, on its own, to get all microsoft console owners to purchase the ticket. The work of Platinum Games directed by Yoko Taro is an explosion of virtuosity mixed with artistic suggestions of various kinds, which draw as much from the video game industry as from cinema and the best science fiction literature; the whole thing is amalgamated in a playful formula as solid as it is courageous, which continues to find its weakest points in an end game too poor for an action RPG and in a technical sector that lends its side to some drop in performance in the face of such adrenaline-pumping and spectacular gameplay. The Become as Gods Edition on Xbox introduces many small improvements to the defects outlined so far, bringing to the shelves of the users of the Redmond giant a definitive and more refined version in relation to the original.

But in short it is a game that you must play; there is no other possible recommendation for a work that has managed to enamor even the most detached of the genre.

NieR: Automata remains a fantastic action RPG, bringing an alluring world, compelling characters and a real sense of agency together to craft something I really can't recommend enough. If you've yet to play this gem, the Xbox One is currently one of the best places to do so.

Being that the game is unchanged from last year, it's no surprise that the Become As Gods Edition doesn't disappoint. If you're Xbox-only and haven't given this game a go, there's no better time than the present.

NieR: Automata is unlike anything else you can play on Xbox One - all the best bits of Devil May Cry or Bayonetta mixed into a narrative that tastes like what you'd get if Lewis Carroll wrote Ghost in the Shell. A thought-provoking, self-aware romp. Recommended.

NieR: Automata Become as Gods Edition is the definitive version, especially for those with an Xbox One X. The strong combat system makes for a fun experience, one that is enhanced by multiple endings of varying amounts of importance. Combine this with a complete adventure, one that includes the expansion, and it makes for a solid offering. Sure, it might not be on par with previous titles, such as Bayonetta or Vanquish, nut NieR: Automata still proves to be one of the best action games of this generation.

Nier: Automata never feels stale or boring thanks to director Yoko Toro's ability to find a way to keep things fresh through gameplay, presentation,and story. Everything about this JRPG is nothing short of gripping and mesmerizing, it's one of those generation-defining games where people will look back on it decades from now talking about it still filled with awe.

One of the best games of this generation (and one of the best action rpgs ever) finally comes to Xbox One, in a slightly refined version and with a price cut: do we really need to recommend it once more?

NieR Automata is one of those special games, one of the ones that advance the medium and that we receive very occasionally to remind us why we love video games. A masterpiece that must be played almost out of obligation.

NieR: Automata has been one of the special titles of the last few years and its experience can remain in your mind for a long time. Some minor flaws have caused the game to be a short distance from a masterpiece, but nevertheless, the present title is one of the best of this generation. Thanks to the Become as Gods Edition version, Xbox One fans can also enjoy experiencing this quality game.

In spite of all the odds against Yoko Taro's career, he has finally delivered a true masterpiece that finally delivers on all fronts, including gameplay. Environmental detail aesthetics lacking aside, Nier: Automata is an unbelievable game and one that just might make even the most stone cold hearted gamers well up into a weepy emotional mess. This is a landmark in storytelling that is one that embraces the fact it is a videogame and does not try to imitate film like the way most story-driven titles do. This is bold and weird without being pretentious, but most importantly it knows how to be a fun videogame thanks to master class action game design. While the extra DLC content is not terribly interesting and the enhancements for Xbox One X are just slight, Nier Automata: Become as Gods Edition stands as technically the best way to play it.
