Get ready for an unforgettable celebration as NieR marks its 15th anniversary with a special livestream that promises exciting updates and insights from the minds behind the beloved series. Dive in to discover what's in store for this milestone event and the potential future of the NieR franchise.
NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream Scheduled for April 19, 2025
Mark your calendars for the NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream, a must-watch event for fans, set to air on Square Enix's YouTube channel. This special broadcast will bring together key figures from the NieR series, including the visionary creator and Creative Director Yoko Taro, Producer Yosuke Saito, Composer Keiichi Okabe, Senior Game Designer Takahisa Taura, and the talented voice actor Hiroki Yasumoto, known for voicing Grimoire Weiss and Pod 042.
The event will not only feature a mini-live performance but also unveil other exciting content to commemorate the series' 15th anniversary. The promotional art for the livestream showcases elements from the now-defunct mobile game NieR Reincarnation, sparking speculation about whether Square Enix might revisit this title or simply celebrate its place in the NieR saga.
Scheduled for April 19, 2025, at 2 AM PT, the livestream is expected to last approximately 2.5 hours. This extended duration suggests that significant announcements could be on the horizon, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
Anticipation for a New NieR Game
The excitement builds as Producer Yosuke Saito hinted at the possibility of a new game in the NieR series. In interviews with 4Gamer in December 2024, Saito expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming 15th anniversary and teased that new developments or even a new game might be in the works.
Since the release of NieR Replicant, a remaster-remake of the original NieR game, fans have been eagerly awaiting a new mainline entry in the series. With no new game released since NieR Automata in 2017, anticipation is high, especially as the 15th anniversary approaches. While Square Enix has yet to make an official announcement, the upcoming livestream could be the perfect stage to reveal what's next for the NieR universe.
