Nier: Automata video shows off 2B's awesome fighting skills and combos

Have a look at this new Nier: Automata video showing off the combo system, weapons and other interesting nuggets.

Watch on YouTube

In the video, four weapon types in Nier: Automata are shown: small swords, large swords, spears and combat bracers. Weapons in these categories can be unlocked along with upgrades to the player’s “Pod” support system.

Players can also switch main character 2B's weapons mid-combo to maximize both the range of abilities and effectiveness.
