Armed with a myriad of weapons,skills, and other abilities, players must ascend the tower of Babel and battle many foes. Each player will be able to create a custom loadout comprised of up to four distinct weapons. They will also be implanted with aGideon Coffin, a magical device attached to each players’ back. This omnitool will be responsible for various traversal, exploration, combat and story elements.

Babylon’s Fall and the Eternal Ziggurat
Sandwiching the Nier Automata collaboration event is what Platinum Games is calling “The Eternal Ziggurat”. Basically, this is what they will be calling the game’s Premium Battle Pass. This battle pass will initially be free for all players. Eventually, the model will be converted to the paid model and will require players to purchase additional seasons. Future seasons will cost 1000 Garaz, the premium currency, or about $10.00.
The game’s first season is planned to last from February 25 to May 31. As of right now, the date is not yet 100% set in stone and can still change.
Babylon’s Fall Season 1 Roadmap
On March 7, a few days after the official release, a new game mode will be introduced: Duels. This will probably allow players to compete against one another in frantic and high-action combat.
The next update, version 1.1.0 will be introduced on March 22, a couple of weeks later. This will be more substantial and contain more new elements. Some of the incoming features include a new enemy faction, the Molzamite, a newweapontype, newbosses,armorand cosmetics. Players will also have access to a new game mode, the Gauntlet. Based on the wording this will most likely be a battery ofcombatchallenges one after another with limited recovery options.

The Nier Automata Anime
While on the subject of other Platinum Games’ amazing works, it was also confirmed on the 5th anniversary of Nier Automata that the beloved classic would be getting an anime adaptation.
There is a teaser site and a quick 30-second video, but unfortunately, it doesn’t have any additional info. All it contains is a few lines in Japanese as well as 2B looking as threatening and graceful as ever. Of course, we can expect it to look flashy, have a great storyline and have some amazing music.
It has us quite hyped, still. Whilewe may not be getting any more Nier, the game isstill popularand lives on in collaborations events such as Babylon’s Fall and Yoko Taro’sVoice of Cards. The Nier Anime adaptation is being worked on A-1 Pictures. The studio is famous for anime such as Sword Art Online or The Seven Deadly Sins.
