Video game modder Lance McDonald has found the last NieR: Automata secret.
This newly discovered cheat code allows players to skip to the last ending and unlock bonus modes after defeating the first boss in the game.
The cheat code is triggered during Nier Automata’s prologue (chapter 01-02_3: 2B Inside the Factory). The only time it can be activated is after the brief conversation 2B has with 9S after defeating the first boss. 2B must stand in-between two sets of three barrels.
While remaining in this spot, hold R2 and press up, down, up, right, left, square, circle, triangle, X. To keep 2B in place while inputting the command, bring up the quick use menu and input from there. Input the command correctly and the screen will fade to black, and the game will skip all the way to the post-credits scene of the final ending.
Yoko Taro and the official Nier twitter accounts have confirmed that the last Nier Automata secret has been found.
