A new PC version of Nier: automata, part of Edition Become The Gods, has just been released on the Microsoft Store and Game Pass. AND first reports are that, unlike the version available on Steam, this one really it works.
The original release of the PC game on Steam in 2017 was a notoriously poor version, both that the fans had to intervene and work on “mods” which fixed things that were supposed to be working at launch, from frame rates to resolution issues.
As notorious as the port, however, was Square Enix’s apparent reluctance to do anything to fix the game, letting it languish on the market for years, with warts and everything, despite Automata critical and commercial success.
That changed this week with PCs Edition Become The Gods—First released on Xbox in 2018 – that the first users are reporting okay, and probably a direct port of that enhanced Xbox edition, and no … whatever the collection of mouse hair and broken glass from the original PC version.

This PC version of Become like gods is available on the Game Pass, but also directly on the Microsoft Store if you are reading this in the future and have been removed from the subscription service.
Note: Although this appears to be a higher version than the original, there are still things present (like a fps limit) that the FAR mod is able to fix or improve, so if you still want to check this out (or see if it works with this version, maybe not!), You can find it on here.
