NieR's 15th Anniversary Livestream with Yoko Taro

NieR is set to celebrate its 15th anniversary with a highly anticipated livestream that promises exciting updates and insights from the series' developers. Dive into the details of this upcoming event and explore the possibilities for the next installment in the NieR franchise.

NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream Scheduled for April 19, 2025

Mark your calendars for the NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream, set to take place on April 19, 2025. Square Enix has planned a special broadcast on their YouTube channel to commemorate the milestone of the NieR series.

This livestream will feature key members of the NieR team, including series creator and Creative Director Yoko Taro, Producer Yosuke Saito, Composer Keiichi Okabe, Senior Game Designer Takahisa Taura, and Hiroki Yasumoto, the voice behind Grimoire Weiss and Pod 042. Fans can also look forward to a mini-live performance and other exciting announcements related to the 15th anniversary.

The promotional image for the event showcases art from the now-discontinued mobile game NieR Reincarnation. This has sparked speculation among fans that Square Enix may be planning something related to this title, or it could simply be a nod to its place in the series' history.

The live stream is scheduled to start at 2 AM PT and is expected to last approximately 2.5 hours, hinting at significant announcements on the horizon.

Anticipation for a New NieR Game

The excitement for the livestream is further fueled by hints from Producer Yosuke Saito about potential new developments for the NieR series. In a December 2024 interview with 4Gamer, Saito expressed his desire to celebrate the 15th anniversary with either a new game or other significant projects related to the series.

The most recent release from the NieR franchise was NieR Replicant, a remaster-remake of the original NieR game. Since the launch of NieR Automata in 2017, fans have been eagerly awaiting a new mainline title. With no official announcements yet from Square Enix, the upcoming 15th Anniversary Livestream offers a promising opportunity for fans to learn about the future of the beloved series.
