The protagonist defeats the pair, with Emil sacrificing himself to ensure his friends' progress. [21] The remaining group then defeats the Shadowlord. It is revealed that the Shadowlord's true identity is the Gestalt form of the protagonist from the prologue; the protagonist the player has been controlling for the majority of the game is his Replicant. Driven to protect his only family Yonah, he was the first Gestalt, and has combined her with the Replicant Yonah. The original Yonah, however, tells the Gestalt protagonist that she can hear the new Yonah inside her, who she knows loves the Replicant protagonist and deserves the body just as much. She vacates the body, and the protagonist and Yonah are reunited. [22] Turcev, Nicolas (2019) [2018]. The Strange Works of Taro Yoko: From Dr NieR:Automata BECOME AS GODS Edition』の詳細が判明!

The concept that would become Nier was first proposed following the release of Drakengard 2 and the reveal of seventh generation consoles. The original concept was for a third entry in the Drakengard series. It was intended to be for the PlayStation 3 due to the lessening importance of the PlayStation 2, which Drakengard 2 had been made for. However, as the project evolved, the original ideas were reworked and the game eventually became a spin-off from the main series. Despite this, the game's director Yoko Taro continues to think of it as the third Drakengard game. [28] Including concept planning, the total development time lasted three years, with two years spent actually developing the game. It was initially a small-scale project, but during planning it grew into a full-fledged role-playing game. Development was handled by Cavia with help from Square Enix, who had previously provided development support for the Drakengard games. [29] Square Enix had minimal input on Yoko's vision for the game's atmosphere and story, allowing him high creative control. [2] The in-game cutscenes were created and directed by Studio Anima.

Nier: Automata was Taura's first role-playing game (RPG), with his prior experience focused on action game development. [13] [21] Taura managed the action-combat system and designer Isao Negishi created the RPG elements. [40] According to Negishi and lead programmer Ryo Onishi, creating a game that was faithful to Nier was difficult and required a change from the style of their earlier titles. [40] For the combat system, the team took the systems used in Nier and blended in elements from other titles by PlatinumGames. Taura's main design goal was to improve the combat system over that of the original and weave it into the story. [13] [21] The basic battle system was completed in two months, then expanded and adjusted during development. [41] While designing the game's RPG elements, the staff at PlatinumGames were partially inspired by The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2015), including the high standard of its sidequests. [23] The sections of Nier: Automata in which the perspective shifts to a side-scrolling perspective were inspired by the Castlevania series, of which Taura was a fan. For the final boss battle in which the player chooses between 9S and A2, the developers considered removing character abilities based on their choice but decided against it.
