Nier: Automata is coming to the Nintendo Switch this autumn. It'll be The End Of Yorha Edition too, which includes all previously released DLC. The news was announced during yesterday's Nintendo Direct Mini, which also dropped a new trailer confirming the launch date of October 6.

Since then Square Enix has confirmed how the game will perform on the Switch. In a Tweet in Japanese, the publisher said Nier: Automata will run in 1080p when docked, and in 720p in handheld mode. The frame rate will be 30fps throughout. While there may be frame rate drops here and there, the stated aim of 30fps isn't bad considering the Switch is less powerful than the other consoles the game is available on.
