How Long It Takes to Beat theNier Replicantremaster?
InNieR Replicant Ver.1.22, compared to the original, the battle system is closer toNieR Automata. The graphics have been improved, and the game is fully voiced. We detailed themain changes in our past coverage.
However,NieR Replicant Ver.1.22still is the same game as the original. As such, you’ll need around 40 hours, the same amount of time as with the original game, to see all endings and complete the remaster. in Normal difficulty.
With that said, theNieR Remasterhas several extra hours of content compared to the original, most notably the Mermaid chapter. Which should give you a few extra hours of gameplay.
How much time it takes to get the Platinum Trophy?
According to players who got the game earlier than most, who also shared their trophy data, it takes in average 60 hours to get the Platinum Trophy.
Personally speaking, I’ll always point out 100% clearing a game doesn’t necessarily getting the Platinum Trophy. Beating the same monster 100 times with no reward but a trophy isn’t real content in my book. This isn’t the case inNieR Replicant,but sometimes, some Trophy requirements can be extremely time-consuming with no real challenge.
Now thatNier Replicantis out of the way, creative director Yoko Taro is also working on a brand new,“indie” like game.Be sure to check out the mobile gameNieR Reincarnationas well.
