Today Square Enix hosted a livestreamed event about the popular mobile game NieR: Re[in]carnation, announcing new content.
Almost inevitably, the new content is an event dedicated to the upcoming reimagination of the original NieR, NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139…
The event will be hosted on the Japanese version of the game starting on March 31, and it’ll allow players to unlock characters from the game.
You can check out a trailer below.
We already know that Nier Re[in]carnation is coming west, but unlike Japan, we don’t have a release date just yet. It’s currently being localized and voices are being recorded in English. Square Enix recently announced that it has passed 10 million downloads.
NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… will be released on April 22, 2021, in Japan and Asia, while the west will have to wait one day longer. NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139 will come to North America and Europe on April 23, 2021, for PS4, Xbox, and PC.
If you’d like to see more, you can enjoy the original trailer of NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139…, the announcement for the west, and the first screenshots, another recent gameplay video, another gallery, and the latest trailer.
If you’re unfamiliar with the game, here’s an official description from Square Enix.
“NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… is a modern re-telling of NieR Replicant, which originally released in Japan in 2010, and is the highly anticipated prequel to NieR:Automata, the post-apocalyptic action-RPG that has sold over 4.5 million copies worldwide. In NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139…, players are invited to experience a dark, apocalyptic world as they join a brother’s captivating quest to cure his sister of a deadly disease – a quest which will in turn make them question everything.”
