Boxart and Day One Edition details:

Thank god for reversible cover.

I'm so happy that's in.

 

[Plywood]

In before everyone buys Farse Souls, but not this.

 

[Hektor]

I'm gonna buy the PS4 Collectors Edition, the steam version, and a few steam copies to giveaway. TIME TO SAVE UP MONEEEEEYYYY

 

[Yabberwocky]

Square, your Day 1 labels are killing me. I'm assuming the reversible cover will lose the PS4 label. Great to have a release date, though.

 

[Jiraiza]

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA GIB GIB GIB GIB GIB GIB MEEEEEEEEEEEE

Screw the Ultimate Edition for FFXV, I'm all over this.

 

[kewlmyc]

Hopefully the Steam version is day in day. Don't think I can wait for it.

 

[Nzyme32]

He never said console exclusive.

Either they are just straight up lying, or the PC version is mysteriously canned.

Or it is the same as always and that term is entirely meaningless.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

if a skin is Playstation exclusive then that means the game isnt playstation exclusive, its not that hard

 

[Kaizer]

Releases one day before my birthday, think I know what I want as a gift now!

 

[rikichi]

Where to preorder black box edition? I need it.

 

[Eolz]

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA GIB GIB GIB GIB GIB GIB MEEEEEEEEEEEE

Fuck, seems Europe is just getting a day 1 edition ;_;

 

[Lingitiz]

Is this a simultaneous release on PC/PS4?

 

[Labolas]

Can't believe the wait will be so short. Pretty hyped to play the demo.

 

[Pinko Marx]

Here's to hoping there's a cheaper preorder edition instead of the Black Box. Ain't paying $200 for a video game.

 

[Sealtest]

Black box is exclusive to SE Store? UGGH Guess I won't be importing it to Canada without paying an arm and a leg.

 

[Nachtfalke]

They better bring that Black Box edition to Europe. No Drakangard 3 situation pls.

 

[Setsu00]

The western cover for this game follows the same pattern as FFXV's. It's horrible.

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

Early 2017 is looking great for JP games.

Boxart and Day One Edition details:

Thank god for reversible cover.

Lol never noticed that the robot was just a bunch of PSones stacked on top of one another.

Also hopefully the reversable cover actually looks like that, and they don't bait and switch us like the FF15 one.

 

[purseowner]

Is Dual Audio confirmed for this?

 

[Armaly]

I'm too excited.

 

[Sumio Mondo]

So ecstatic for this. Probably the one on top of my "most hyped for" list and it has some really good competition in Yakuza 0, Nioh, Gravity Rush 2 and Persona 5.

What was wrong with the reversible cover in FFXV?

 

[sora87]

It's all too much friends

 

[addik]

Soundtrack? Artbook?

They better bring this to Asia/Philippines.

 

[freeofgreed]

What was wrong with the reversible cover in FFXV?

When they first announced the reverasble cover it looked like this, but in the Final product they removed the PS4 logo and it was just the image. Some people prefer this, but I like it when reverasable covers look like real covers, so it can actually match with the rest of my games.

 

[NeoRaider]

I know that it was Sony event but was PC version even mentioned? No Steam logo, info about is release date the same... nothing.

 

[DMONKUMA]

I thought Yoko said that the steam version was same day as PS4?

I mean of course they're not gonna mention other platforms at the even besides their own but yea....

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Will I be able to appreciate this game without playing the first Nier?

 

[Hektor]

Will I be able to appreciate this game without playing the first Nier?

Yes

 

[Exentryk]

Uh oh!

yokotaro @yokotaro
Thank you very much for many reply. And I can't answer about release date of Steam version. Please ask Square Enix. Thank you.

I'm really hyped for this and I haven't played the first one.

[Humdinger]

Damn, it's going to be a crowded Feb, March, and April 2016. I'm not complaining.

 

[Robobandit]

shit..

I hope they didn't cancel the PC version..

At least now I'm expecting..

PC version 6 months after PS4

Spoiler

Please look forward to it

 

[Toparaman]

Switch releasing the same month.

Help.

 

[duckroll]

Uh oh!

Not like this....

 

[rdytoroll]

This looks fucking amazing. I've never played Nier, but the combat here looks so fluid. I want it

 

[NeoRaider]

Uh oh!

If they delay it, after they announced it's same date as PS4 version...

 

[bbd23]

Uh oh!

please god no

 

[DMONKUMA]

Oh damn that's bad....

 

[Durante]

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if S-E had Platinum sit on the finished PC version for a few months. It's just the kind of insightful business decision you expect them to make.

 

[Vigamox]

This game looks amazing so far in terms of combat, art style, and music. I hope that demo comes before the end of the year!

 

[GhostTrick]

Guys, the game was announced on day and date release on Steam. Stop panicking over nth

 

[Adnor]

Don't really care if they delay it on PC unless it's more than 4 months. I just want it.

 

[Durante]

I'm not panicking, I can wait.

But I do believe you should consider two words carefully: Square. Enix.

 

[Jingo]

Wasnt this date confirmed way earlier? Is this new?

 

[Hektor]

Yoko Taro always says "Please ask square enix" when asked about business related things, i wouldn't put too much thought into it.

Classic western box art design. Thank god for the concept of reversible covers.

I know, they sat on FFXHD for a year. But here, they already announced that it's coming out on the same date. Yoko Taro just can't comment on SE's publishing duties in West.

Basically this.
