Square Enix recently held a spectacular NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream, unveiling a series of exciting events and updates to honor the franchise's milestone. Dive into the details of what's planned for the NieR universe and get the latest from Re[in]carnation's monthly developer blog.
As part of NieR's 15th Anniversary celebration, Square Enix made several exciting announcements during the April 19 livestream. One highlight was the introduction of the NieR's online Special Novel titled [U]ndecided Option. This novel will feature a total of three updates, with the first one already accessible. The subsequent updates are scheduled for April 25 and May 2. The novel's intriguing premise involves a 'servant' encountering a mysterious boy, setting the stage for an engaging narrative.
To accompany this announcement, Square Enix launched a dedicated NieR 15th Anniversary website, serving as the central hub for the online special novel and other upcoming projects and events related to the anniversary celebration.
Square Enix is set to host an exhibition at Sunshine City in Ikebukuro, Japan, showcasing new artwork featuring protagonists from Replicant, Automata, and Re[in]carnation. Details about tickets and additional information will be released soon.
Music lovers can look forward to additional performances at the NieR: Orchestra Concert 12024, scheduled in Osaka on July 25 and 26, and in Tokyo on August 2 and 3. Tickets are available through a lottery system, with more information accessible on the concert's official website.
The celebration extends to a variety of merchandise, including a new album with jazz arrangements from NieR: Dinner Show – Somethin’ or Other 12024, slated for release in December 2024. Additionally, the NieR Weapon Story book, featuring over 650 stories about weapons from Replicant, Automata, and Re[in]carnation, and scale figures of the series' protagonists are also on the horizon.
Starting April 28, NieR Re[in]carnation, the first mobile title in the NieR series, will launch a monthly developer blog series, continuing through the end of the year. These blogs will provide insights into the development process of Re[in]carnation, which was initially released in January 2021 and unfortunately shut down in April 2024 due to monetization challenges.
The sudden introduction of a developer blog for a closed game has sparked speculation among fans about potential sequels or remakes. However, no official announcements have been made regarding these possibilities.
The livestream concluded with an over 20-minute live performance featuring soundtracks from the NieR franchise. Square Enix promises more exciting events and merchandise announcements in the near future, ensuring that the NieR 15th Anniversary celebration continues to captivate fans.
