NieR 15th Anniversary Livestream on April 19, 2025

Prepare for an unforgettable celebration as NieR hosts its 15th Anniversary Livestream, featuring key figures from the series. Scheduled on Square Enix’s YouTube channel, this event marks a significant milestone for the NieR series.

The livestream will showcase a stellar lineup of talent involved with the series, including NieR's creator and Creative Director Yoko Taro, Producer Yosuke Saito, Composer Keiichi Okabe, Senior Game Designer Takahisa Taura, and the voice actor for Grimoire Weiss and Pod 042, Hiroki Yasumoto. Fans can also look forward to a mini-live performance and other exciting reveals to commemorate the 15th anniversary.

The promotional art for the livestream features elements from the now-discontinued mobile game, NieR Reincarnation. This choice has sparked speculation about potential new projects linked to the mobile title or simply a nod to its place in the series’ history.

Set your alarms for April 19, 2025, at 2 AM PT, as the NieR 15th Anniversary Live Broadcast is slated to run for approximately 2.5 hours. With such a lengthy event, anticipation is high for major announcements.

Possible New Game for the Series

Adding to the excitement, Producer Yosuke Saito has hinted at the possibility of a new NieR game. In a December 2024 interview with 4Gamer, Saito expressed his desire to celebrate the series’ 15th anniversary with a significant project, potentially a new game or other developments.

Since the release of NieR Replicant, a remaster-remake of the original NieR game, fans have been eagerly awaiting a new mainline entry. The last major release was NieR Automata back in 2017. Although Square Enix has yet to make an official announcement, the upcoming anniversary has fans buzzing with anticipation for what could be next in the NieR universe.
