PS4 Exclusive NieR Automata Goes Gold

2017 looks to be a good year for PS4 exclusives. Fresh after Guerrilla Games announced that Horizon Zero Dawn had gone gold before its release, Yosuke Saito, producer of NieR: Automata also announces that his game has also gone gold.

NieR: Automata And Horizon Zero Dawn

Saito posted about NieR: Automata's status on Twitter, and rough translation of his caption says that he decided to make the announcement since it has become a recent trend. Though Guerrilla Games decided to announce their gold status with a picture of the entire development team holding up celebratory champagne, Saito's image only featured a plush doll on top of a copy of NieR: Automata.

Siliconera points out that NieR: Automata had actually gotten its gold status for a while, but it looks like now is the time that the developers decided to announce their achievement. With two game already marked for gold, PS4 players must be feeling very lucky right now.

Release Dates Too Close?

As of now, NieR: Automata is slated for a release in Japan on Feb. 23 with releases in North America and Europe set for March 7 and 10 respectively. A PC version is also said to be in the works, but no official release date has been confirmed, other than the fact that it's expected to come out this year.

Oddly enough, Horizon Zero Dawn is also set for a release this coming Feb. 28. With the release dates so close, it can't be helped but wonder if one title is going to affect the sales of the other. With both games being highly anticipated and already stamped with gold, fans will have to find out which game will truly come out on top by the end of February.

Will NieR:Automata come out on top, or will it be stomped by Horizon Zero Dawn upon release? Fans will just have to wait till the games get released near the end of the month to see which PS4 exclusive will dominate the market.
