That's putting it mildly.
Some of the most unprofessional behaviour of a publisher of that size that I can remember.

So... they removed the trailer with Steam release date from their press site: http://press.na.square-enix.com/releases/917/battle-trailer-introduces-nier-automatas-main-weapon-types
RIP.
Waiting for the announcement on 8th of March then.
I will laugh my ass off if that happens.
yep they already did witn the "delay for DRM" thing but these shanenigans around the date are beyond ridiculous and borderline offensive now
I've hex edited Inside (before it was patched to remove denuvo) and Unravel (another denuvo protected title), both to add ultrawide support, so this is not 100% accurate.

This is really weird. Why not just announce it for later if it is coming out later on PC?

So, Square is thinking of releasing it out of the blue, "Sega Saturn" style?

Damn it, be true.
There's a marketing deal with Sony, as many suspected to begin with. Squeenix voluntarily going scorched earth on PC version info makes absolutely no sense.

What a mess. Until a Steam page shows up I'm not betting on anything.
Hey now I already made that joke

Pretty much. I can see my email being ping-ponged via multiple SE reps, but not one has replied to me. Gotta love email read confirmation.
Looks like we will still don't have a release date.

This could be Square Enix's official company slogan really.
The trailer featuring the steamrelease was pulled from SE's pressportal

oh thank god from the reactions in the OT I figured this would be the "PC version cancelled" thread
PHEW
Now I can go back to hating SE for refusing to tell us when it releases

This is ri-goddamn-diculous!
Absolutely nothing is clear about the release of the PC version from Square-Enix for months. I wouldn't count on anything substantial being said even if they respond.
Wow really?
I guess it's possible the Sony clause was for them to only advertise the PS4 version? Which could mean it still comes out then. Not holding my breath though....
Otherwise they could have put it up and not realised they hadn't changed the date.
Either way, that's pretty damn incompetent lol.
I'm also glad I didn't get rid of my PS4 pre-order yet. I had the PS4 pre-ordered for a good price which I probably wouldn't find again.

...oh
LOL whoops, didn't get to run through the rest of the thread. This is so weird, it's like Frank Ocean and the release for Blonde. Maybe Square will put up a stream of someone building a robot.
