NieR: Automata's 'End of the YoRHa' Edition: Key Differences

By ThomasFeb 10,2025

NieR: Automata

NieR: Automata offers several editions, each with unique content. This guide clarifies the differences between the Game of the YoRHa, End of the YoRHa, and Become as Gods editions.

Game of the YoRHa vs. End of the YoRHa Editions

The primary difference lies in platform availability:

  • Game of the YoRHa: PlayStation and PC.
  • End of the YoRHa: Nintendo Switch.

Both include the base game and the 3C3C1D119440927 DLC, featuring:

  • New outfits for 2B, 9S, and A2.
  • Three challenge arenas with various difficulty levels and quests.
  • A new secret boss.

The End of the YoRHa edition adds optional motion controls and touchscreen support (in handheld mode). However, it also offers a separate, cosmetic DLC (6C2P4A118680823) featuring costumes from NieR: Replicant.

The Game of the YoRHa edition includes additional exclusive content:

  • Play System Pod Skin
  • Cardboard Pod Skin
  • Retro Grey Pod Skin
  • Retro Red Pod Skin
  • Grimoire Weiss Pod
  • amazarashi Head Pod Skin (PlayStation only)
  • Machine Mask Accessory
  • PS4 Dynamic Theme & Avatars (PlayStation only)
  • Desktop Wallpapers (PC only)
  • Valve Character Accessory (PC only)

Become as Gods Edition

Exclusively for Xbox, the Become as Gods edition largely mirrors the Game of the YoRHa edition, including:

  • 3C3C1D119440927 DLC
  • Machine Mask Accessory
  • Grimoire Weiss Pod
  • Cardboard Pod Skin
  • Retro Grey Pod Skin
  • Retro Red Pod Skin

In essence, the core gameplay and story remain consistent across all editions. The choice depends on your preferred platform and desired additional cosmetic content. The End of the YoRHa edition's extra DLC is purely cosmetic, so the Game of the YoRHa edition offers significant value unless you specifically want the Switch version and its additional cosmetic options.
