NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139... is a remaster of an action RPG game in the NieR series originally released in 2010 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It was originally developed by Cavia and remastered by Toylogic. Both the remaster and the original have been published by Square Enix. The game is a predecessor of NieR: Automata.[2][3]
NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139... launched with issues where framerates above 60 FPS would cause the game to be sped up. This issue was addressed in a June 16, 2021 update.[4] Many other outstanding issues are fixable with a 3rd party mod.

Issues fixed
Performance issues / Sped up gameplay / FPS cap below 60 / Mouse on screen when using controller
- Several reports indicate that performance issues are present, even on hardware that is within the listed system requirements. Among other things, the game attempts to use Vsync to cap the FPS to 60, but on some systems this either fails entirely or caps at an unexpected value such as 48 FPS on a 144 Hz monitor. Any framerate above 60 also speeds up the game.
Use Special K to fix and improve performance:[14][15] |
