NieR: Automata 2 is already in development, according to an industry insider

It's been a while since NieR: Automata reached consoles. The title of PlatinumGames and Square Enix surprised everyone with its launch on PlayStation 4, finishing to amaze everyone who had the opportunity to meet 2B, 9S or A2 also on Xbox One and PC. After a recent re-launch with an even more complete version, whose analysis you can read here, it seems that the teams have gotten back to work to create something much bigger. NieR: Automata 2 would already be in development.

At least that's what an insider ensures with a great knowledge about the ins and outs of the industry. The user of Twitter Benji-Sales, specialized in sales and market figures within the video game sector, recently launched a tweet with which he began to turn on the flame of HYPE:
  "Yo. Just imagine how sick the sequel to Nier Automata is going to be...My God"

More than enough message so that the questions began to arrive and shed some additional details. As he explains, the budget for this second part will be much greater than that available for the original, and the team has been expanding a lot in recent months to face the development and capture the peculiar vision of Yoko Taro. As it says, "it's in the active production phase as we speak," so it's possible that there's a formal announcement sooner rather than later.
