Glory to Mankind and all that.NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition is rated M by the ESRB and will be available for Nintendo Switch on October 6, 2022. After playing through the game’s opening I think this is not only a solid version of the classic action RPG, but a new benchmark of what we can expect from older games making their way to the platform. Turns out the answer is way better than I ever could have expected. How was this game that was already a technical mess on far more powerful hardware going to hold up on a portable console that had a less than stellar history when it came to ports of more ambitious titles. So when it was announced that Automata would be coming to Nintendo Switch in the form of the End of Yorha Edition, I feared the worst. Despite it being heralded by many as a modern masterpiece, the game isn’t shown very much respect. The PC version sucked too, with fans constantly asking Square Enix to fix its many issues with little success.

On PS4 and Xbox One it strived to hit 60 frames per second, but frequently dropped beneath its performance target and thus provided an experience that was ultimately inconsistent. Nier: Automata has never been especially well optimised.
