NieR Automata PS4 PlayStation 4 1

It's been a little while since we last heard anything about NieR Automata, the Platinum Games developed action spin on Square Enix's cult PlayStation 3 series. However, as part of an event in Tokyo today, a few new minutes of gameplay footage – as well as a trailer – were shown to an excitable crowd. It's looking a bit of alright, isn't it?

While this isn't exactly the most bombastic showing ever, with Platinum Games at the helm, we're sure that there'll be some epic moments in the final game. For now, though, we're actually really liking the character and environment designs – and, of course, the combat looks as flashy and fluid as we've come to expect from the Metal Gear Rising maker.
