Seriously... how big is Platinum Games now? it like they have their hands in everything. They are on course to become a powerhouse in Japan... i wouldn't be surprised if they started publishing their own titles soon.

First their games need to start selling...

 

[sphagnum]

2015 Platinum was everything.

 

[Withnail]

It's really weird how several PS4 exclusive games weren't at Sony's press event but a ton of nonexclusive ones were.

It's not up to Sony where this gets announced.

 

[Magnetic_North]

There is nothing that's gonna top this E3 nothing

This has single handly been the best E3 ever...seriously

Nier 2 by Square and Platnium....amazing!!

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Fuck Shenmue 3.
Fuck the FFVII remake.
Fuck The Last Guardian.

THIS is the best thing to come out of E3 for me so far. Now I just need FF XII HD.

 

[Palculator]

This is the best possible outcome ヽ( ´ー&#65344ﾉ

 

[Durante]

Never played the original, but I hope this turns out well.

Sad that this is probably the nail in the coffin of MGR2 coming anytime soon, at least from Platinum.

Sorry about that, but I'd personally entomb 15 MGRs for a new Nier if I had to.

 

[Gambit61]

I hope they bring back the vocalist from the first game's soundtrack.

 

[Durante]

I hope they bring back the vocalist from the first game's soundtrack.

Yes, they need to bring back Emi Evans.

 

[Phanatic8390]

Ahhh who keeps snatching up used copies on Amazon before I can check out?

Fuck it ordered new. I always wanted to play it.

 

[digita1alchemy]

First their games need to start selling...

Apparently not, they keep getting high tier work.

 

[Anung]

I hope they bring back the vocalist from the first game's soundtrack.

And the weird language she sang in

 

[Finalow]

"Nier was a great game but gameplay was meh. so let's call PG, plus this dude Yoshida and make a sequel!"

 

[Aizo]

I love you too!

;___;
Durante is so sweet..

 

[Hesemonni]

Sorry about that, but I'd personally entomb 15 MGRs for a new Nier if I had to.

I like you.

 

[PixyJunket]

I like how 75% are unique platform exclusives too haha

I bought a Wii U for Platinum.

Now I'm buying a PlayStation 4 for Platinum.

Probably buying an Xbox One for Platinum.

I can't even be mad.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Sorry about that, but I'd personally entomb 15 MGRs for a new Nier if I had to.

Yes! Yes Yes! Emi Evans gotta come back in this piece!

Everyone's dead after Nier but who gives a shit? The main girl you know is gonna be dead at the end of the game but who gives a shit!? This game is gonna be god!

 

[{insert code here}]

It's nice to see Japanese titles still showing up on consoles. Between this, FFXV, Tales, P5, and DQ Heroes, I've got plenty of stuff to look forward to over the next 6-12 months.

 

[kuroshiki]

Sorry about that, but I'd personally entomb 15 MGRs for a new Nier if I had to.

15? I will give up 100 MGSR if I had to for just one more nier. (no offense rising fans. just bear with us nier fans)

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Like, everything about this was perfect

 

[Golnei]

And the weird language she sang in

Seeing as she was also the lyricist for Nier, it'd be disappointing if they didn't use the same approach. Drakengard 3's music was still fairly good, but the invented languages were so much more unique.

 

[Sàmban]

OK this seals it. Buying a PS4

 

[Kssio_Aug]

I have not played the 1st game! They said anything about a re-release?

 

[Prophet Steve]

I bought a Wii U for Platinum.

Now I'm buying a PlayStation 4 for Platinum.

Probably buying an Xbox One for Platinum.

I can't even be mad.

Hmn, this does kind of sound how I react to Platinum games announcements, damnit.

 

[ubercheez]

So happy they're making another actual Nier game! I was worried Drakengard 3 was the closest we'd get.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Need NieR 2 now! No idea how long we'll have to wait, especially for the US release =/

 

[Squalor]

Can I retroactively get rid of the first Nier to get another Rising?

Ugh.

 

[wmlk]

Yes! Yes Yes! Emi Evans gotta come back in this piece!

Everyone's dead after Nier but who gives a shit? The main girl you know is gonna be dead at the end of the game but who gives a shit!? This game is gonna be god!

What do you mean everyone is dead? It's a tragedy, but not many of the main characters die.

 

[Jigorath]

Sony

STOP

You've already won

 

[DrZeus]

Never played the original but I'm in since its certified Platinum 😉.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

I'm losing my goddamn mind over this.

 

[theSlacker]

Can I retroactively get rid of the first Nier to get another Rising?

Ugh.

No, but with enough effort you can get rid of your shitty opinions and preferences. :3

 

[Durante]

It's nice to see Japanese titles still showing up on consoles. Between this, FFXV, Tales, P5, and DQ Heroes, I've got plenty of stuff to look forward to over the next 6-12 months.

From the way they presented it, I really don't expect this in the next 12 months. Especially not in English.

 

[jj984jj]

How does a studio that proves to be such bomb-fodder still manage to get so much work. It's baffling.

Because they're great at what they do. They aren't responsible for marketing and promotion, so those games that fail aren't really a detriment to their work.

 

[jonjonaug]

I tuned into Squeenix conference specifically because I had a good feeling they would be announcing a Yoko Taro game. Somehow I was not disappointed.

 

[Castef]

Hope it is better than the first one. Looking at the developers it probably will.

 

[Machinehead]

2015 Platinum was everything.

And I love it!

 

[valentine71]

1- The Last Guardian
2- FF7 Remake
3- Shenmue 3

And now Nier 2. Is this the best E3 ever guys?

 

[Spieler Eins]

HOLY FUCK YESSSSSS

Best announcement so far, absolutely crazy.

 

[Robotguy]

E3 2015: Everything was Platinum Games.

 

[jayu26]

Well there is your PS4 Platinum exclusive.

 

[Spider from Mars]

Can I retroactively get rid of the first Nier to get another Rising?

Ugh.

No

 

[Cuyejo]

Here's Platinum's ps4 exclusive, alright then.

 

[RyudBoy]

Fuck Shenmue 3.
Fuck the FFVII remake.
Fuck The Last Guardian.

THIS is the best thing to come out of E3 for me so far. Now I just need FF XII HD.

It's up there with the FF7 remake.

 

[gamergirly]

Platinum getting around at this E3

 

[bigbaldwolf86]

Yes! Yes! Yes!

About time a sequel was announced. Epic levels of hype for this one.

 

[BadWolf]

1- The Last Guardian
2- FF7 Remake
3- Shenmue 3

And now Nier 2. Is this the best E3 ever guys?

Yes and it will be for a very, very long time.

 

[-NeoTB1-]

This E3 has been insane. INSANE. Sony... you magnificent beast you.

 

[Ferr986]

1- The Last Guardian
2- FF7 Remake
3- Shenmue 3

And now Nier 2. Is this the best E3 ever guys?

And Dark Souls 3. It's the best E3 indeed.


PD: Holy shit Nier 2!!

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Never played the original, but I hope this turns out well.

Sad that this is probably the nail in the coffin of MGR2 coming anytime soon, at least from Platinum.

Hey.

Play the original.
