Old NieR (“Father” NieR)

Entering the 15 Nightmares changes NieR’s appearance to old NieR or “Father” NieR, the version of the protagonist in NieR Gestalt. This effect is, however, only aesthetic as you will be able to use weapons and magic normally. You also do not gain any new abilities in this form (to be confirmed).

How to Unlock 15 Nightmares

You can access 15 Nightmares by going to NieR’s house during the second story route (after clearing the game once and unlocking Ending A). Examine the glowing spot in the center of the first floor of the house to begin the 15 Nightmares content.

15 Nightmares Dungeons

15 Nightmares consists of a series of three dungeons which can be entered by going through a door inside the mysterious white dimension that serves as the area’s hub. At first, there will only be two doors in the hub, one that leads back to NieR’s house and the other to the first dungeon. A new door will be unlocked by clearing each dungeon one by one.

Noted that you will to start from the beginning of a dungeon if you die at any of its levels.

Recommended Level for 15 Nightmares

It is highly recommended to be at around level 30 to 40 before trying to clear all of the dungeons in 15 Nightmares. Many of the levels in each dungeon feature powerful shades and bosses that can easily kill you in one hit if you are at a low level.

Because of this, you should try accessing 15 Nightmares when nearing the end of the game’s second story route (before going to the Shadowlord’s Castle). Try to have your favorite weapons upgraded to their maximum levels as well before taking on the dungeons.
