More specifically, the new version of Nier Replicant includes the 15 Nightmares dungeon, which was originally downloadable content for the original title, as well as a number of costumes like Kabuki and Samurai as well as YoRHa costumes and weapons from Nier: Automata. Even better? The Nier: Automata voice cast will guest in the video game, including Yui Ishikawa, Natsuki Hanae, Ayaka Suwa, Ao Yuki, Kaoru Akiyama, Kira Buckland, and Kyle McCarley. You can check out the trailer for yourself above to get an idea of what that all looks like in action — including the newly added “Mermaid” episode.
