2. NieR: Automata’s Cryptic Trailer

Recommended Videos


RPG fans have been looking forward to this one for quite some time, and Yoko Taro did not disappoint us at Sony’s conference. NieR: Automata got a shiny new trailer that made absolutely no sense at all, which, quite honestly, is part of the charm when it comes to video games and stories crafted by Taro. The trailer was extremely weird and cryptic, and it was more than a little difficult to figure out what was going on there. In fact, the trailer was mostly just a lot of screaming and crying, which suggests that Automata is going to take fans on a crazy and emotional ride. If you’ve played the original NiER, make sure to prepare the tissues.

In addition to that, the trailer also revealed the official release date for NieR: Automata. While it hasn’t been confirmed whether the Feb. 23, 2017 release date applies to North America and Europe as well, it’s definitely nice to see that development is coming along well, and that we won’t have too long to wait before we finally get to check out the game ourselves.
