The goodies don’t end there, though. For those who are now in the Nier: Automata spirit, we have information on the “Black Box Edition” and Day One Edition for PS4 below!

A fresh take on the action-RPG genre, Nier: Automata is being developed in collaboration with PlatinumGames Inc. and gracefully blends mesmerizing action with a captivating story. The adventure is centered around androids 2B, 9S, and A2, and their battle to reclaim the machine-driven dystopia overrun by powerful machine lifeforms.

Black Box Edition

For gamers in search of exclusive items to complement the fast-paced action, we’re proud to present the Nier: Automata “Black Box Edition,” exclusive to PS4.

Back at E3 2016 we showed off a prototype of the 2B statue during our Square Enix Presents livestream. Seeing the fully developed statue here and how awesome 2B looks, it brings an android tear to my eye.
