When trying out NieR Automata's BECOME AS GODS Edition, we noticed that the game was surprising difficult to run at the game's capped FPS framerates at 4K using both our Radeon RX 6800 and Geforce RTX 3070 graphics cards. Square Enix recently released a performance patch that vastly improved Replicant's gameplay, but no such luck for Automata.1080p Performance - NieR Automata is still a demanding PC title Much like Automata, Replicant's PC port release with poor optimization, resulting in stuttering, dropped frames, and other graphical issues.
