NieR: Automata - YoRHa Edition: Unveiling the Enhancements

NieR: Automata offers several editions, each with unique content. Choosing the right one depends on your platform and desired extras. Let's compare the key differences:

Game of the YoRHa vs. End of the YoRHa Editions

The primary distinction lies in platform availability:

• Game of the YoRHa: PlayStation and PC.
• End of the YoRHa: Nintendo Switch.

Both include the base game and the 3C3C1D119440927 DLC, featuring:

• New outfits for 2B, 9S, and A2.
• Three challenge arenas with tiered difficulty and quests.
• A new secret boss.

The Switch's End of the YoRHa edition adds optional motion controls and touchscreen support in handheld mode. However, it also offers a separate, cosmetic DLC, 6C2P4A118680823, containing costumes from NieR: Replicant.

Exclusive Content:

• Game of the YoRHa: Includes additional pod skins (Play System, Cardboard, Retro Grey, Retro Red, Grimoire Weiss), a Machine Mask accessory, and platform-specific bonuses (PS4 dynamic theme, avatars; PC desktop wallpapers, Valve character accessory).
• End of the YoRHa: Offers the 6C2P4A118680823 DLC with extra costumes and pod skins (but requires separate purchase).

Become as Gods Edition

This Xbox-exclusive edition closely resembles the Game of the YoRHa edition, containing the base game, 3C3C1D119440927 DLC, and select pod skins and the Machine Mask accessory.

Conclusion:

Story and core gameplay are identical across editions. The choice depends on your console and preference for extra cosmetic content. The Game of the YoRHa edition offers a broader range of included extras, while the End of the YoRHa edition provides Switch-specific features and the option to purchase additional cosmetic DLC. The Become as Gods edition is a comparable option for Xbox players.
