The elevator robots are in the teaser pick? Predicting grand troll incoming....

Ditto.

On the day of the Steam release there was a private build labeled Colosseum DLC which had a higher build number than the release build. Might have something to do with that. There are two new builds regularly updated but they're both just named random letters now. My guess is one is the upcoming patch and the second relates to the DLC.

/wishful thinking

[OniBarubary]

THIS CANNOT CONTINUE

 

[Isaac Otherworld]

I can imagine something like "We placed these robots in front of these unopening doors to show off this really nice animation we made for them. Isn't it nice? Let's admire it for a while. Nothing will ever be added to these doors."

 

[Crayon]

Leona Lewis is right. Give us the dlc.

 

[Jintor]

Announcing nier: high school edition

 

[JBwB]

It's probably a DLC announcement.

I mean why else would they show a picture of those doors?

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

I-is Taro going to apologize for not allowing us past the doors and then explode into useful materials...?

 

[OniBarubary]

Announcing a Game of the Year edition!

It's just the regular edition except they removed some features.

 

[chrono01]

I AM READY!

 

[JD_Lars]

"We will be adding a boar drifting element to future builds."

 

[Rhaknar]

Fuck dlc and give me Nier remastered

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

"We will be adding a boar drifting element to future builds."

Have I got news for you, buddy.

Spoiler

Boar drifting is already in. Press R2 on the boar.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Can't wait to see all the insanely over the top reactions to Yoko Taro doing/saying something slightly weirder than someone else would.

This, but unironically.

 

[Bowl0l]

Is it coming to Asean Steam store yet besides Japan?

 

[TissueBox]

It would be interesting if those doors had something to do with DLC.

 

[raven777]

Is it coming to Asean Steam store yet besides Japan?

Probably after the game comes out on PS4 for Asian region? It comes out at the end of this month.

 

[JD_Lars]

Special guest voice actress Hellena Taylor to announce Scarborough Fair DLC weapon/move set and menu VO pack?

Spoiler

A boy can dream

 

[Holundrian]

Hoping for DLC news but still super happy for Yoko Taro.

 

[SunDimension24]

Is it coming to Asean Steam store yet besides Japan?

Yes, I believe the only thing they said was April.

[Battlechili]

Nier Remaster and/or port pls

THIS CANNOT CONTINUE

BECOME AS GODS

 

[GrayChild]

Nier 3? Drakengard 4? Automata DLC? Nier: Remaster?

Oh, I know! Why not announce ALL OF THESE at once?

 

[hughesta]

Yoko Taro is writing Bayonetta 3 releasing April 11 on Steam

 

[SunDimension24]

Yoko Taro is writing Bayonetta 3 releasing April 11 on Steam

Which will strangely tie into a fourth drakengard game for some reason.

 

[Isaac Otherworld]

I'm hoping for some DLC. All I want from this game is more.

 

[Usobuko]

1 million is too little for the game.

It's a sufficiently differentiated product behind a cult-following auteur, price elasticity of demand should be rather inelastic.

Sure hope words-of-mouth could push steam to say 500k and PS4 to 1.5m eventually.

 

[cuilan]

Since it seems to have sold fairly well, perhaps the stream will partially be about this:

I forgotten that Asean PSN is super selective when it comes to games. Was a reason given for the delay?

Yes, I believe the only thing they said was April.

raven777 guess is probably right.

NieR: Automata not coming to Xbox One

 

[Echoplx]

There was a depot on SteamDB called "DLC Colosseum テスト用" before they removed the name.

 

[Hektor]

Here's hoping the DLC's will add some nice costumes.

...I really wanna play some dress up

 

[IbukiLordSA]

More DLC
More Costumes
Drakengard 3 coming to PS4

 

[MarineMountie]

Will watch. Gonna start my next play through tonight! Thanks for the info OP.

 

[T-Rex.]

Gimme that DLC

 

[NightShift]

New story content starring A2 please!

 

[Ubernube]

I'm curious how they're going to handle DLC

Spoiler

given how people can delete their saves as part of the story, particularly if it involves those doors. It'll be a royal pain in the ass trying to get back to those doors starting from scratch.

Course, knowing Yoko and co, they could easily just say tough shit.

 

[OniBaka]

NieR: dancing all night

 

[LordOfLore]

New key visual for the concert:

That's gorgeous

 

[raven777]

They are localizing it in Chinese and Korean, which is the reason for late release.

 

[Pachimari]

Now it's time for a sale. A man can dream.

 

[LotusHD]

New key visual for the concert:

Oooh

 

[Funyarinpa]

Too bad that would never be a place to announce a PC performance fix patch... right? :/

Spoiler

desperate to play the game at anything over 15fps with my potato PC here T_T

 

[How About No]
