The Basics guide will help you learn the gameplay mechanics of NieR Automata. It describes such elements as combat, world exploration, availability and development of playable characters, online elements, or death and its consequences. In addition to the information on the main pages of the guide, we also have the FAQ chapter which explains, e.g. how to save the game, how to use fast travel, how to heal, how to install chips, or how to fish. We recommend reading all the FAQ and guide pages, as not all the mechanics of the game are presented in an accessible way and it is easy to miss something or not use the full potential of the characters.
Our guide to NieR Automata also has a walkthrough of all main and side missions. The descriptions of individual quests have information on, e.g. how to defeat bosses, how to reach the objectives of the mission, and what rewards are provided for completing them. The walkthrough has been further divided into subsections focusing on different Routes for various playable characters. We also have lists of major and minor endings along with information on the requirements for unlocking them.
