NieR's 15th Anniversary Livestream: New Updates Revealed
NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream: April 19, 2025
Mark your calendars! Square Enix is hosting a livestream on their YouTube channel to commemorate the NieR series' 15th anniversary. This special broadcast will feature key figures behind the series' success, including:
- Yoko Taro (Creator and Creative Director)
- Yosuke Saito (Producer)
- Keiichi Okabe (Composer)
- Takahisa Taura (Senior Game Designer)
- Hiroki Yasumoto (Voice of Grimoire Weiss and Pod 042)
Expect a mini-live performance and other exciting anniversary announcements. Interestingly, the promotional image features art from the now-closed NieR Reincarnation mobile game. This could hint at future developments related to the title or simply serve as a nostalgic nod to the series' history.
The livestream begins April 19, 2025, at 2 AM PT on Square Enix's YouTube channel. With an estimated runtime of 2.5 hours, anticipation is high for major reveals.
A New NieR Game on the Horizon?
Producer Yosuke Saito has hinted at the possibility of a new NieR game in the works. In December 2024, an interview with 4Gamer saw Saito mention the anniversary and express a desire to commemorate it with either a new game or significant series developments.
The last mainline entry in the series was NieR: Automata in 2017, followed by the NieR Replicant remaster-remake. While nothing is officially confirmed, fans eagerly await news of the next installment, especially with this significant anniversary approaching.
