NieR: Automata presents us with a grim scenario where Earth lies in ruins after a prolonged war between the last human androids and a horde of invading machines from another world. These relentless entities forced humanity to abandon their home, taking refuge on the Moon.
Driven by the desire to regain their homeland, humans gave life to the YoRHa squadron, a group of combat androids designed to fight on their behalf. Despite being devoid of the ability to feel emotions and lacking individual identities, each of these androids exhibits a unique attitude that sets them apart.
The Bunker, an orbital base of the YoRHa squadron, serves as the center of operations from which these androids are commanded. From there, they establish an autonomous resistance on Earth, maintaining the hope of repelling the invading machines and reclaiming the planet in the name of humanity.
