In Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139… you can find a total of 33 different weapons, which are hidden in the two parts of the game. Some of them are obtained as part of the storyline (i.e. they are impossible to miss), others are rewards for completing side quests, and others have to be purchased from blacksmiths.
Endings and weapons
There are five endings in the game, and three of them – C, D, E – require collecting all the weapons. But there is one notable moment – as soon as the first half of the game is over, you will no longer be able to get into it. That is, you will be deprived of access to all the weapons left in it, as well as to side missions. Below, we have divided all the weapons into two parts. So, before moving on to the second, be sure to collect all the weapons from the first.
