The Switch's End of the YoRHa edition adds optional motion controls and touchscreen support in handheld mode. It also offers a separate, cosmetic DLC purchase (6C2P4A118680823), including costumes from NieR: Replicant and new pod skins.
The Game of the YoRHa edition (PlayStation and PC) includes additional exclusive content:
Become as Gods Edition:
Available exclusively on Xbox, this edition closely resembles the Game of the YoRHa edition, including the 3C3C1D119440927 DLC and several pod and accessory skins, but lacks the platform-specific extras of the other editions.
In Summary:
The core gameplay and story remain consistent across all editions. The choice depends on your preferred platform and whether you value the platform-specific bonus content or the additional cosmetic DLC available for the Switch version.
