NieR's 15th Anniversary: A Livestream Event and the Promise of New Updates
Get ready, NieR fans! A special 15th-anniversary livestream is scheduled, promising exciting new developments for the beloved series. This comprehensive guide details what to expect from the event and explores the possibility of a new game announcement.
NieR's 15th Anniversary Livestream: April 19th, 2025
Mark your calendars! Square Enix will host a livestream celebration on their YouTube channel on April 19th, 2025, at 2 AM PT. This 2.5-hour event will feature key figures from the NieR universe, 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 significant anniversary announcements. The promotional image notably features art from the now-closed NieR Reincarnation, hinting at potential future developments related to the mobile title or simply a nostalgic nod to the series' history.
The Anticipation for a New NieR Game
Speculation is high among fans for a new mainline entry in the NieR franchise. Producer Yosuke Saito previously hinted at the possibility of a new game or significant series developments during a 4Gamer interview in December 2024, coinciding with the series' upcoming anniversary. With NieR Replicant (a remaster/remake) being the last major release, and NieR: Automata launching in 2017, the wait for a new core game has been considerable. While no official announcements have been made, the upcoming livestream fuels this anticipation.
Don't miss this momentous occasion for NieR fans! Tune in to Square Enix's YouTube channel on April 19th, 2025, at 2 AM PT for what promises to be a memorable and potentially game-changing livestream.
