A new cheat code has been discovered for NieR: Automata, almost four years after the game’s release.
The cheat code was discovered by Lance McDonald, a well-known hacker and modder who frequently takes apart games to find secrets. His most famous stunt included discovering that Lisa, the haunting stalker of PT, continues to behave in horrible ways while off screen.
McDonald spent “hundreds of hours reverse engineering” throughout the game. He wasn’t looking for this particular code, no one knew it existed, he was trying to find cool features when he came across the code.
The code allows you to face the final ending immediately after fighting the first boss. NieR: Automata it has multiple endings, many of which cannot be accessed by up to two or three games, but this code allows you to skip all of them.
McDonald explains that he didn’t break the game to do it. It is not a bug, glitch or exploit. It is “real cheat code” intentionally encoded in the game.
