PlayStationPlus Premium and Extra subscribers have been treated to one of my favourite action-RPGs, to download and play at no extra cost.
Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139… is a bit of a mouthful, but the PS4 game is a fine example of Square Enix at its best. It will also work well onPlayStation 5.
The game serves as a prequel to one of the best action-RPGs we’ve played in years – Nier: Automata – and has an equally engrossing story, great characters and some of the best swordplay around.
In all honesty, the version that’s now available as part of thePlayStation Pluscatalogue is a remaster of a PS3 original – then called just Nier Replicant. But, it wasn’t a massive hit for the publisher in the UK or US so is a real treat for those who missed out the first time – especially as it doesn’t cost anything more.
A PS Plus Extra subscription costs £10.99 per month in the UK, $14.99 in the US and enables online play for thousands of PlayStation games, while also giving access to the main game library of 300+ titles to download and play.
Step the plan up a little and you get PS Plus Premium. This costs a little more, at £13.49 / $17.99 a month, but adds cloud streaming and another games library of classic and retro titles.
Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139… is available on both tiers from today, Tuesday 19 September 2023.
