NieR's 15th Anniversary: A Livestream Event and Potential New Game Reveal
Get ready, NieR fans! A special 15th-anniversary livestream is set to unveil exciting new updates and behind-the-scenes insights from the minds behind the beloved series. This article delves into the upcoming event and explores the possibility of a new NieR game announcement.
NieR's 15th Anniversary Livestream: April 19, 2025
Mark your calendars! Square Enix will host a livestream celebration on their YouTube channel on April 19, 2025, at 2 AM PT. The event promises a 2.5-hour extravaganza featuring key figures from the NieR universe, including Yoko Taro (creator and creative director), Yosuke Saito (producer), Keiichi Okabe (composer), Takahisa Taura (senior game designer), and Hiroki Yasumoto (voice of Grimoire Weiss and Pod 042). Expect a mini-live performance and other anniversary surprises.
Intriguingly, the promotional art features imagery from the now-closed NieR Reincarnation. This could hint at future projects related to the mobile title or simply serve as a nostalgic nod to the series' history.
The Next NieR Game?
Speculation is rife among fans about a potential new game announcement. Producer Yosuke Saito previously hinted at the possibility of a new NieR project in a 2024 interview with 4Gamer. With the 15th anniversary and a substantial livestream planned, hopes are high for a major reveal. The last mainline entry, NieR: Automata, launched in 2017, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the next chapter in the acclaimed series. While nothing is confirmed, the anniversary livestream promises to be a significant event for the NieR community.
