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 a stellar 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 other anniversary announcements.
Interestingly, the promotional image features art from the now-closed NieR Reincarnation mobile game. This could hint at future developments related to that 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 some 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 a December 2024 interview with 4Gamer, Saito alluded to the upcoming anniversary and expressed his desire to commemorate it with a new game or significant series developments.
Since NieR Replicant (a remaster/remake of the original NieR), fans have eagerly awaited a new mainline entry. While no official announcements have been made, the 15th anniversary livestream presents a prime opportunity for a major announcement. The wait for the next chapter in the NieR saga continues!
