Square Enix's followup to NieR made it to Tokyo Game Show this year and with a new demo showing off the tech and stylized combat that the developer Platinum Games is known for. The two gameplay videos were released from these demos showed off some impressive feats. The first displaying a story segment of the game that blends this action game with 2D side scrolling with a bit of platforming ensuring that the game will always give you new ways to keep your attention.

The second video shows off the High Score Challenge Mode which is basic arena battle mode where you attempt to rack up as most points as possible within the time limit. Here we can witness the high speed intense combat in all it's glory. The attacks are viscous and visceral and even from the video you can feel the blows being delivered on each enemy. The combat appears very smooth and intuitive. In this gif we can see YoRHa switching from gauntlets to katanna halfway into the air combo flawlessly.

The camera even pans into a top-down perspective keeping you on your toes. Nier: Automata is shaping up to be quite the sequel to 2010's NieR. NieR: Automata is due for a 2017 release, but those who can't wait quite that long will have an opportunity to try it a bit sooner as a demo is planned to release at the end of this year (http://gematsu.com/2016/09/nier-automata-demo-due-out-end-2016).
