■ Additional Information Regarding the Picture Book

Yoko Taro had stated during the 2nd Live Broadcast that the picture book is merely a spinoff with no direct link to the story in Automata. He says that the atmosphere between the two is relatively the same, however, so it is perfectly safe for anyone to read the book before or after playing Automata. That being said, he also suggested to read the book after playing the game… you may get a different impression.

Additionally, it was confirmed in the 3rd Live Broadcast that this is *not* 9S.
