Square Enix boasted sales of games in the series Nier. Role-playing game Nier: Automata from PlatinumGames from 2017 rose to no 7 million copies sold. That number has jumped by a whole million since last June, largely due to its recent release on the Nintendo Switch.
Released last year Nier Replicant version 1.22474487139, as the full title of the 2010 remaster of the original NieR game, has also made progress. Games have been sold 1.5 million parts.
Both games exceeded Square Enix’s expectations. Initially, the publisher did not expect any of them to surpass the original. This happened several times and especially quickly. About the general sales of the original Nier (2010), which is approx. half a million copiesachieved Nier: Automata per less than two months. Nir Replicant had the same success he passed the one million mark in three months.
“Replicant stands out above all for its touching storyline, great music, and fun combat system. Thus, the game will undoubtedly appeal not only to fans of NieR: Automata, but also to newcomers to the series,” we wrote about NieR Replicant in review.
