Nier: Automata has 26 different endings. Some require a lot of work, getting to the end of the game and making a specific choice, while others are easy and require failing certain missions. Gamers should keep in mind that beating Nier: Automata for the first time is not the end of the story. It only results in one ending. After, players can begin a second playthrough with all their gear and levels intact to uncover what happens next.
