The ongoing church mystery of Nier Automata has finally been revealed as an elaborate mod by the game community.
In the past few hours, a Nier subreddit user who initially brought the secret church drama to life has appeared on Twitch, showing themselves running through the entire weird area. However, at the end of the stream, it is revealed that the region is a detailed modification, as shown in the graphical screenshot below.
This whole deal turned out to be an elaborate marketing ploy for a brand new Nier Automata. As you can see in the above graphic, the mod team plans to make all of their engine tools public so that the game community can use them as they like.
The team behind the new mod wrote, “Over the next days we will be releasing new Blender plugins and scripting tools. Completely open source. We have a lot in store for you.” So, the whole secret church sacrament was the work of moderates after all, and it got society completely hooked.
It will be interesting to see how fully detailed and embodied the mode is for Nier Automata. The development team is behind the mod plan to make the game playable, so there is no doubt that there will be other secrets hiding among the demo that we haven’t seen yet.
This also finally explains why assets from the Nier Replicant have been popping up in the new area, along with several Drakengard 3 assets recently. Depositors are back in the series’ past for new items and items to recruit in the demo, including a fountain of birds near the climax of the original game. The mystery surrounding the Secret Church may have finally been resolved, but who knows what other discoveries lie ahead in the new mod.
