One of the best video games of the past decade, Nier: Automata, recently got an anime adaptation. The series was praised for its faithful retelling of the acclaimed video game’s mind-bending narrative, and soon fans will be able to add the full run to their Blu-ray collection with the Nier: Automata Ver. 1.1a Collector’s Edition. The Blu-ray set is available exclusively through the Crunchyroll Store, and preorders are now live ahead of its October 15 release date.
$120 ($150)
This four-disc set includes the full run of the Nier Automata series plus extra content like promotional trailers, clean versions of the intro and ending credit sequences, and a bunch of physical goodies including:
- Series reference booklet: Elements of NieR: Automata Ver1.1a
- Illustrated guide booklet: POD’s Records 001
- Replica Disc
- Exclusive illustration cards
Like the game it’s based on, the Nier Automata anime is set thousands of years after humanity escaped to the moon and left human-like androids behind to fight in an endless conflict against robotic lifeforms created by a hostile alien civilization. The story follows androids 2B and 9S on a mind-bending mission that includes everything from action-packed fights against towering robots, to deep philosophical examinations of life–robotic or otherwise. While fans of the games will get a new, fleshed-out take on the storyline, the Nier Automata TV series is also perfect for newcomers who want to experience the acclaimed story in anime form. If you’re looking for more Nier content beyond the anime series and games, there are also several manga and novels written by series creator Yoko Taro that expand the fictional universe of Nier Automata and its prequel Nier Replicant.
