Emil is a boss unit in NieR:Automata.

Description


This mysterious creature emerged from inside of a machine lifeform and set up a shop after obtaining a new body. While he calls himself Emil, his true identity is a mystery. Once he discovered who had been stealing from his room, he was incited to fight. But after being defeated, he was reduced to tears by the realization that only power matters in this world.


Gameplay

In order to defeat Emil, the player must first locate his residence and steal an item from Emil's Residence. The entrance is located in a secret tunnel in the City Ruins near the outside of the sewer system (the one right next to the endpoint of the final race in the Speed Star questline). In the tunnel is an elevator which takes the player to an underground cave system, eventually leading to a door to Emil's home.

There, the player can steal an item, which is noted by the Pod that theft may upset Emil. After that, the player must speak to Emil again in the world map, where he will mention that there was a break-in, and he has upped the security in his home.

The player must return to the house as 9S to steal another item (as it is locked in a chest that can only be opened through hacking), and upon exiting his home the encounter will begin, with Emil being surprised that 9S and 2B where the thieves.

Defeating Emil will reward the player with Emil Heads.
