There is good news all over the place for fans of the NieR franchise. As we reported on earlier, an updated version of the original game will be coming to current consoles and PC under the name NieR Replicant Ver. 122474487139, and now there is exciting news in regards to the sequel.

Announced via a Tweet from the NieR Series account, the highly acclaimed NieR: Automata (which we gave a 9) is heading to Xbox Game Pass on April 2. Apologies to PC Game Pass users as this is exclusive to the Xbox One.

Even more good news, the version that Game Pass subscribers will have access to is the BECOME AS GODS EDITION that includes the base game, the 3C3C1D119440927 Expansion DLC, four pod designs (Grimoire Weiss Pod, Retro Grey Pod Skin, Retro Red Pod Skin, and Cardboard Pod Skin) and Machine Mask Accessory.
