If 2B is confirmed to Smash, I'm going to work wearing mecha leggings for the first time tomorrow.
The only real way to contain hype.

Here we go!

 

[Hektor]

STARTIIIIIINNNNNnn

 

[Javier]

YES!!!!!!!! Nier Replicant looks beautiful ;_;

Release date: April 22th, 2021 for Japan, the 23th for Europe and North America for Ps4, Steam and Xbox.

 

[Hektor]

I WONT BE ABLE TO WAIT THIS LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

 

[Weiss]

2021 FUCK

 

[Mik317]

lol he bailed

 

[JCal]

April, baby!!!!

 

[Yabberwocky]

They've captured the atmosphere/art direction of the original game beautifully. And the release date isn't too far away, yay!

 

[SebTheCat]

yesss april next year

 

[Zhao_Yun]

I hope the reversible cover will actually have the PS4 strip on top this time....

 

[Javier]

I really want that White Snow Edition for Nier Replicant.

 

[Hektor]

There's no way in hell they are gonna bother to localize the books this time around, is there? :(((

 

[Yabberwocky]

The NA/EU cover is a lot better than Automata's, at least. Phew.

The JPN CE is lovely, too. I wish my Japanese was better for the novelty of a copy of the game's script!

 

[Bane]

Man, fuck keeping a soundtrack arrangement bound to a limited version of the game.

 

[Hektor]

That they are recasting the same voice actors in japan makes me hopefully theyl do the same for the west

 

[Bane]

Yeah, this is really cool. I figured they'd just use the original recordings.

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

I don't think that frontflip slash is in Gestalt.

 

[Razmos]

The combat looks great

 

[Phendrana]

As someone who never played the original NieR but adores Automata...this is looking fucking amazing.

I was expecting a pretty faithful remaster.

 

[Yabberwocky]

The Shades look perfect! Combat looks snappy, but still weighty, which is great.

 

[SebTheCat]

That gameplay looks fantastic.

 

[Hektor]

I wish i had a smartphone that could play Reincarnation :(

 

[Azubah]

Holy shit that statue was massive.

 

[Yabberwocky]

Hey, Square, how about localized copies of the game's script for EU/NA?

...it's nice to want things, lol.

 

[Razmos]

I had to go on a meeting at work during the Reincarnation info, did they announce a release date/western release? Thanks

I definitely prefer the NA default cover for Nier Replicant ver. 1.224. The way Yoshida has women pose in promotional art always bugs me. The upgrades to the battle system seem really nice, just wish they showed more. It looks like it's been ported to UE4.

On a side note, that concept art of 10 year old Yonah is just a tad off putting. Good thing they gave her a long dress in the actual game.

Give me a remake of 3 without the laughable framerate and I'm golden.

 

[Zukuu]
