You’ll just need to grab the Nier: Automata Mod Helper if you want to install the secret church. SadFutabo and uploader DevolasRevenge recommend being around level 90 for your first time playing, and removing chips such as overclock and shockwave so that you’re not too powerful. They also suggest not playing the regular story with the mod’s normal version installed, instead plumping for the lite version. The mod’s at version 1.0, and its creators say that “improvements may come”, hinting at “even bigger changes”.

Adam (RPS in peace) gave the game an RPS Recommended in hisNier: Automata review. “You don’t need to have played any of Yoko Taro’s previous games to appreciate Automata, even though it has links to both Drakengard and (of course) the original Nier,” he said, “but it’ll probably make you keen to seek them out.” It seems to just be a game that inspires people to look for things, I guess.

Nier: Automata’s available onSteamfor £30/$40/€40. We ranked it amongthe best RPGsyou can play on PC today. We’ve got more on the secret church mod coming up at a later date, so look out for that.
