Since it is a role-playing game the conclusion of the series depends totally on the choices we made while playing it. It gives out a different ending every time you will play the game.

NieR: Automata anime adaptation release PV
The awaited teaser we are here talking about was released on youtube on 23rd February 2022. Much to our surprise, the creators are still planning to keep it slow and give out the information really slow. The teaser didn’t give out a lot about the anime neither the character design nor the animation can be predicted from it. However, we got a nice glimpse into the looks of 2B and Pod 042 androids at the end. Other than this, there was some writing at the beginning but that all were in Japanese and we can’t read it. And that all the information square Enix decided to give out.
The whole game of NieR Automata is based on the things that a player does which decides the end of the game. Still, fans are doubting the decisions by the creator to get it into an anime. Just because there is some heaviest clashing scene which becomes great due to the interaction the player has. It’ll be really interesting to see how things will turn out while adapting a game into a TV format. Let’s wait until the next update and keep our figure crossed in the hope to get the anime NieR: Automata of our expectations.
