Nier Replicant is a remastered version of the original Nier, which was released in 2010 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The original Nier was not released in PC, but gratitude to the absurdly titled Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139, we will soon get to play an upgraded version.
In Japan, the original game was released in two flavors. PS3 got Nier Replicant(exclusive for Japan), which featured a younger protagonist while Xbox 360 got Nier Gestalt. In Nier Gestalt, Nier-a middle-aged man is the protagonist who is searching for a cure for his daughter. While in Nier Replicant, Nier is a teenage boy who fights monsters in a dark, apocalyptic world.
Square Enix’s, Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139 is an upcoming action role-playing video game that will for the original Japanese version of the story. Moreover, this remastered edition will also get a deluxe edition named Nier Replicant ver. 1.22474487139: the White Snow Edition.
