Square Enix has announced that a remaster of the first NieR game is currently under development. NieR Replicant Remaster will be coming to the PC via Steam, and below you can find its announcement trailer.
NieR is a spin-off from the Drakengard series, and follows the fifth ending of the first game. This remaster is based on the Japanese PS3 version of NieR, titled NieR Replicant.
Unfortunately, Square Enix has not revealed any additional details about this project. We also don’t know when the game will come out.
Enjoy the following trailer and stay tuned for more!

Excellent news!
Best news of the year.
Excellent!!!
Lol,6 downvotes…maybe they think im robo-fernando alt.. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6d8d5d228161d0ae63f74a19366433287a750ab58c1a6418a60f09da7c70993b.gif
Nah, it’s just that………. it’s not excellent, that’s all.
Its excellent news for me considering there’s other unlucky IP that SE don’t do anything with its aniversarry (Parasite Eve, Chrono Cross etc)
If it offers the same “features” like Nier Automata, they can stop bothering.
That game launched with bugs and glitches, didn’t bothered to release at least a patch
Oh no, it did recieve a patch, but that patch was for a DLC and to change the “editiion of the game” not to fix any of the problems the games had. So i’l wait at least a couple of months to see how things go this time around, but i’m not holding my breath.
They even had the nerve to release it with denuvo. I think the moding community fixed most of the game’s issues.
Not the crap peformance, though.
Mainly stuttering when changing areas, installing it on a SSD almost resolve the issue, the game has good performance without MSAA, which disables AO anyway, SMAA or DSR is a better option, last you can lower Global Illumination to medium using FAR assuming you’re already using it, i got constant constant 60 fps, with only few dips when loading new areas
Well, i’ve done some of the things you’ve said, i gained about what, 20+ FPS. But i’ve refunded it, i didn’t want to play a game that i’ve bought with 30 euro, at 45 FPS, and with mixed settings. I’ve ended up just buying Tomb Raider Rise Of The Tomb Raider, that worked fantastic and looked much better.
The main problem is the performance/graphics ratio, aside from the animations, this looks dated, in a normal world it should run great even with 2012 hardware…
Nothing in Automata justifies the poor performance (not even 2B’s butt) indeed, nice artstyle tho.
That butt is from heaven bro lol
Nier was f*king awesome and if all that hit you about it was bugs and glitches, I don’t know what to tell you. I played through the whole game with no issues and it was one of the best games I’d ever played, you legit sound like a robot.
Kid, just because YOU didn’t had any problems, doesn’t mean we ALL did.
Most people with a PC made in the last ten years didn’t have issues either but aye, OK lets say it did have issues. That’s probably still the last thing I would mention because of how unique the game is. Bloodborne is my favourite game by far and it’s a sub 30 fps shitshow.
One of the worst games with some of the most cancerous fanbases in gaming.
your taste are so bad.
Yours is even worse, go get the “staring at 2B’s a*s” trophy, f*king pervert.
Yours is even worse, go get the “staring at 2B’s @$$” trophy, f ucking pervert. Also, learn proper grammar, f uckwit.
a puritan as well i see.
Wow just wow.
Uhhh uhhh ur grammar so bad lol lol lol lol you fvking perver lol lol i will go and cry on twitter lol lol lol
Grow up, little f@gg0t.
Also, gotta love the irony with your comment.
One of the worst games with some of the most cancerous fanbases in gaming
Has a MK character as avatar
Pick one, you r3t@rd.
Another cancerous Nier faqboy, just proves my point.
I’m not even a Nier fan, you stupid kunt. I just like pointing out your stupidity.
“I’m not even a fan, but I hate you anyway” Nier faqboys are SO predictable, this is not even the first time I get a comment saying EXACTLY the same:
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6d65678b6bc0d9c215cca9e5e13d7d40751f4d1fd2f84eecba5b73c28f7342df.png
Yes, yes you are a Nier faqboy that’s why you’re waiting it as you said in the comment above you hypocritical c unt.
Wow. You are one stupid f@gg0t, you know that, right? I didn’t said that i’m waiting for it, you dumb moron. lmao. I said that “i hope it will have a proper PC port”. Learn to read, you puss, before calling someone else out for their baad grammur.
And again, you don’t GET to say that someone has bad taste in games, when you have MK character as avatar. That only makes you even more hypocritical.
Also, you r3t@rd, news flash for your dumb@$$, linking a game, doesn’t make you a fanboy.
Your little comment there proves nothing, only that you are a massive little bich. Nothing else to add. Now keep disliking, little girl. That’s all you can ever do. Dislike any comment that offends your sensitive butt. <3
Attention everyone! This is what a triggered snowflake looks like.
Ahh, sweet, sweet irony.
Insults people that like something he doesn’t
Gets called out for it
Proceeds to get mad and take 10 minutes to type 5 sentences
Calls people triggered, while himself is triggered

Keep proving my point, buffoon.
Keep crying, little bich. <3

Wow you sound like a b*tch
Yes, keep accusing your opponents of being bigots and other insults when you really are the bigot and the insults actually apply on you, that’s how right-wingers work.
Nah, you are just insane, go back to Retardera/Polygon
I don’t go to those crappy websites, but nice try though.
Well you are just acting like the average user of those sites.
Oh my, he still crying. Those goddamn bigots and right wingers. How dare they make my baby cry.
What the f*k you’re talking about, you’re like the biggest libtard on this website I’ve ever seen.
You don’t see me crying my @ss out because of muh bigotry, right? Also… a libtard wouldn’t criticize Wolfenstein New Collossus and Period Blood for being too PC, and having 2 annoying tomboy-lesbian-looking protagonists. Yeah… that’s not what a libtard would do. FPS fan is not libtard either, he’s just a r3t@rd.
I feel so bad for you, you can’t say even ONE comment without swearing. I bet you are so butthurt that you were going to downvote ALL of my 600 comments right? Low IQ subhumans like you are EXACTLY why I hope a locked profile.
Why would i downvote your comments, bud? They mean nothing to me. But i can tell they mean the world to you, that’s you downvoted each and every comment of mine from the Mafia 2 mod. 16 comments, 16 downvotes. Beside the point that you’re a hypocritical piece of schit, you also try now to act superior. Bich, please.
What a big brain individual are you. Downvoting each and every comment that hurts your @nus.
As i said, keep crying little girl. If you beg me, i’ll even bring you your milk bottle.
The only butthurt here is you, you reply with TWO MOTHERF UCKING comments on ONE comment. I know, you’ll reply more with TWO comments because you’re a stupid c unt who MUST BE the last person to reply. Nier faqboys are indeed low IQ subhumans.
Lmao. You act like a kid. “I’m not butthurt! He’s butthurt! He started it!”.
Yeah, i have to replay with 2, because your comment is as r3tard3d as you. Plus, the screenshots take up too much space, and i didn’t want to make my comments look like an essay.
You still going on with that argument, girl? Hurrr durrr fanboys here, fanboy there. Idiot, are you mentally insane? Like, you’ve forgot your pills?
I personally didn’t know that Covid-19 can affect the brain. You must be a special case.
Well, beside the fact that you’re piece of schit, you’re also a bigger hypocrite.
You pathetic kunt already DID downvoted each and every comment, those were 16 comments at the Mafia 2 mod article. You went out of your way to downvote each comment, and not only from that article.
And you come here now to talk schit when i downvoted 4 comments?
A normal person wouldn’t give 2 fvks about downvotes or upvotes, but you’re not one of them, and it seems that it affects your life.
Get the fvk over yourself, bud.

Nice. Hope this one will have a proper PC port.
What’s going with the downvotes lately ?!!
A bunch of whiny lil’ biches, that’s why. That’s the only thing they can do, dislike. Because they think the world revolves around their anu$, and that just because they don’t like something, no one else should.
Wouldn’t hold my breath
I hope its a remake and not a remaster…
HAHA that’s a lot of hope, it’s Square Enix, just hope for a graphic settings menu, and MAYBE a 60 fps lock instead of 30
the whole point of this release is to make money by re-releasing a finished game dude.
Not gonna hold my breath, because of how they treated the last port job, as in doing nothing about it at all…
this still is great news. i missed playing this from last gen.
never even thought Replicant would be brought back over Gestalt.
i would like both of them to be brought back and be able to compare them both.

I’m looking forward to playing the original myself, absolutely loved Automata, totally took me by surprise, I aint no weeb but that game was f*king awesome.
square enix so yea expect a broken port that will never get fixed
it’s square enix, ubisoft, EA, Bioware, Capcom, Epic games, 2k games, Microsoft, Remedy, Rock Star, so yea expect a broken port.
I guess that leaves ping pong and frisbee left to play…
given that this is from the last gen (and even then it did not compare visually to other last gen games) pretty sure any typical gaming rig will be able to play this. even if it doesn’t receive patches.

Remember how they treated PC gamers?
I hope they will not do it again
it should give free to those who bought the pc version.
There is no PC version.
Nice
SquareEnix….. Expect the utmost of incompetence and disregard, as well as the heaviest of DRM. This, of course, will be followed up by the cherry on top, the absurd “SquareEnix” pricing. What could possibly go wrong?
Ain’t nobody got time fo dat
Well, the PC The Evil Within port was a mess on launch (30 fps caps, the damn black bars without a option to remove them) but it end up fixed…eventually. Add that this is a Square gig so…i wouldn’t expect a good port for this, even when the game is decades old (Nier Automata looked like a PS2 HD ported game and ran – still does – like crap)
Cool, definately a buy. On PS4, obviously.
chromatic aberration cancer
Oh hey, it’s that low IQ SJW subhuman with a Nier Autofarta avatar downvoting every single comment of mine. I have a message for you:
F uck you c unt ??????
Oh joy another remake.
