The long-running Nier/Drakengard series has been widely NieR Replicant Remaster seems as though it will help simplify its story at least by being the ultimate version of NieR. With two previous versions of the game, Replicant and Gestalt, featuring the main character at different ages and several changes to the overall story it could get very confusing to be a fan of the series.
NieR Replicant Remaster luckily only features the Replicant version of the protagonist, which drastically cuts down on the confusion that many might have had with the game. The thing is though the player can earn alternate costumes during the game that will alter the way that NieR looks. In total the player is able to acquire five different alternate looks for NieR in the game, so this guide shows players how to unlock all of the outfits.
NieR Replicant Remaster: How to Unlock Nier's Outfits
Nier's first look is that of a very young silver-haired teenager that is just his standard outfit. This is how the character will look throughout the entirety of the first arc of the game, and the only way to alter that look is by making it to the second story route. Once the player starts the second arc they will acquire Nier's adult look, which is the same character but aged up five years. There are alternate looks for both the young and adult versions of the character that can be unlocked by ing the "4 YoRHa" DLC. With this DLC both outfits will be altered to instead resemble that of the android characters from NieR Automata. In both alternate outfits, NieR will receive a black jacket and black cloth tied around his eyes.
There are two other costumes that the player can get their hands on, but these can only be acquired by making their way through the 15 Nightmares. These optional challenge dungeons have been included as a way for the player to test their combat skills and earn special items. The player will unlock the two other outfits by completing different missions in the 15 Nightmares. Nier's more colorful Kabuki outfit can be obtained by the player completing the fifth level of the first dungeon. The more armored Samurai outfit on the other hand is acquired by completing the fourth level of the second dungeon.
NieR Replicant Remaster can be played on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
