Is the Nier: Automata save file safe to use?

Yes. Nier: Automata is a single-player game with no online components beyond an optional "other players' data pillars" feature that doesn't require any account interaction. Loading a downloaded save only affects your own local progress.

Are all endings (A through E) unlocked?

Yes, this save collection is structured to let you access Endings A through E in sequence — the multiple main-path endings are reached by story progress and NG+ playthroughs from 2B, 9S, and A2's perspectives, all of which are included and ready to trigger.

What are Pod programs and are they all included?

Pod programs are equippable abilities for your support drone (Pod 042/153), ranging from attack lasers to defense shields and utility skills. This save includes every Pod program found through side quests and world exploration.

Does this save include the DLC content?

This save reflects the base Game of the YoRHa Edition content, which already bundles the 3C3C1D119440927 arena DLC. Costume DLC items activate automatically based on your Steam license rather than the save file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this Nier: Automata save file safe to use?

Yes. Nier: Automata is single-player, with the only online-adjacent feature being optional "data pillars" left by other players in the world, which don't require an account login. Loading a downloaded save only affects your own local progress.

Where is the Nier: Automata save file location on PC?

Saves are at C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\My Games\NieR_Automata\SaveData\, stored as SlotData_XXX.dat files per slot alongside a shared GameData file. Steam App ID 524220.

How do the multiple endings (A through E, and beyond) work?

Nier: Automata's "true" completion isn't a single ending — Ending A completes the story from 2B's perspective, Ending B replays the same events from 9S's perspective, Endings C and D branch based on a late-game choice playing as A2, and Ending E is the true finale unlocked after seeing C or D. This save is structured so each of these routes can be reached and their respective endings triggered, since this is core to how the game defines "100% complete" rather than a single linear ending.

Are all weapons collected and maxed?

Yes, all 39 weapons across Small Swords, Large Swords, Spears, and Bracers are collected and upgraded to their maximum level (typically level 4, requiring rare materials from specific enemies and side quests), including secret and quest-exclusive weapons like the Phoenix Dagger, Cruel Oath, Virtuous Contract/Treaty, and Ancient Overlord.

What are Pod programs?

Pod programs are equippable abilities for your floating support drone (Pod 042 or 153), ranging from offensive lasers and homing shots to defensive shields and utility functions like the Hacking mini-game attack. This save includes every Pod program obtainable through side quests, shops, and world exploration.

Does this save include DLC content?

The save reflects base Game of the YoRHa Edition content, which already bundles the 3C3C1D119440927 arena DLC (cleared in this save). Cosmetic costume DLC unlocks automatically based on your Steam license and isn't tied to the save file itself.

About Nier: Automata

Nier: Automata is an action role-playing game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Square Enix, released in 2017, serving as a spinoff/sequel to the cult classic Nier (2010). Set in a distant future where humanity has fled to the moon after an alien invasion, players control androids of the YoRHa unit — primarily 2B, 9S, and later A2 — fighting machine lifeforms on behalf of a mysterious "Council of Humans." The game is directed by Yoko Taro, known for subverting player expectations and blending genres in unconventional ways.

Combat merges PlatinumGames' signature hack-and-slash action (fast weapon-switching combos between dual-wielded weapon types) with bullet-hell shoot-em-up sections controlled by the player's support Pod, plus segments that shift into 2D side-scrolling, top-down twin-stick shooting, and even text-adventure styles depending on the scene. Nier: Automata is famous for its narrative structure, where the "true" ending is only reached after multiple full playthroughs from different characters' perspectives (2B in the first pass, 9S in the second, and A2 alongside 9S in the third), each revealing new story context and even changing how certain mechanics behave.

100% completion is unusually involved even by JRPG standards: it requires progressing through Endings A, B, C/D, and finally the true Ending E, collecting and maximally upgrading all 39 weapons (many requiring specific enemy drops or side quest completion), acquiring every Pod program, finishing every side quest across the game's three playthroughs, and completing side content like the fishing minigame and machine village quests. A full completionist run, accounting for the mandatory multiple playthroughs, typically takes 40-60 hours. The game's soundtrack and emotional storytelling around the nature of the machine lifeforms and androids' own humanity have made it one of the most acclaimed action RPGs of its generation.
