Nier Automata continues to sell like there's no tomorrow and reaches nine million copies

NieR Automata is one of the most surprising games of recent years. Released in 2017, it catapulted its creator, Yoko Taro, to stardom, and since then he hasn’t released any other major game. Nor has he needed to. Because NieR Automata continues to sell like hotcakes while we keep waiting for his next big title. NieR Automata sells as if it were going to be taken off the shelves because, according to Square Enix, NieR: Automata has already sold more than nine million units.

NieR Automata is one of the most surprising games of recent years. Released in 2017, it catapulted its creator, Yoko Taro, to stardom, and since then he hasn’t released any other major game. Nor has he needed to. Because NieR Automata continues to sell like hotcakes while we keep waiting for his next big title.

NieR Automata sells as if it were going to be removed from stores

Because, as announced by Square Enix, NieR: Automata has now sold over nine million units. The last figure we had was from last February, when it reached eight million units. This means it has sold one million units in just the last ten months, which is an astonishing figure for a game that was released seven years ago and whose last edition was The End of YoRHa Edition for Switch in 2022. If we don’t count its DLC with Stellar Blade.

But this should not surprise us. NieR Automata is an excellent game, with a cult following that continues to grow. And while we patiently wait for Yoko Taro to announce his next game, we might as well start another playthrough of NieR Automata. Or play it for the first time, if you never have.
