Mark your calendars! Square Enix is hosting a livestream on their YouTube channel to commemorate the NieR series' 15th anniversary. The event boasts an impressive lineup of key figures from the NieR universe, including creator and Creative Director Yoko Taro, Producer Yosuke Saito, Composer Keiichi Okabe, Senior Game Designer Takahisa Taura, and voice actor Hiroki Yasumoto (Grimoire Weiss and Pod 042). Expect a mini-live performance and plenty of other anniversary surprises.

Interestingly, the promotional image features art from the now-closed NieR Reincarnation mobile game. This has sparked speculation about potential future projects related to the title, or it could simply be a nod to the game's place in 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 some major announcements.

Could a New NieR Game Be on the Horizon?

Producer Yosuke Saito has hinted at the possibility of a new NieR game in the works. In a December 2024 interview with 4Gamer, Saito discussed the upcoming anniversary and teased the potential for either a new game or significant developments within the series.

The last main entry in the series was NieR Replicant, a remaster-remake of the original NieR. Fans have eagerly awaited a new mainline game since NieR: Automata in 2017. While there’s been no official confirmation from Square Enix, the 15th anniversary livestream offers a prime opportunity for a major reveal.
