I have discussed the status of the Global release of Yoko Taro’s SINoALICE smartphone game in the past, but we’ve got some big news that should make a lot of international fans excited!
NEXON has finally relinquished its rights to the global release back to Pokelabo, the developer. According to their announcement, the game should be out sometime this summer, around the beginning of July, if everything goes well this second time around!
This segment is only available to NicoNico Premium Members. There is no Net Ticket for this segment.
The final free-to-watch segment of the Anniversary livestream will likely be around 5 hours and function as a typical talk show like we’ve seen the crew do in the past. It’s currently unknown exactly what will be discussed during this segment, but there’s always a possibility they will drop something important on us (perhaps something about Yoko’s New Project?) We shall see…!
According to Chizai Watch, Square Enix has registered a new trademark under the single-word title “NieR”.
This is important because SQEX never had a registered trademark to cover the entirety of the NieR series, including NieR Gestalt/Replicant, NieR:Automata, and all the other related off-shoots. This trademark would remedy that.
Please note that this announcement does not reveal any up-coming release for the series, merely that SQEX wants to combine all previously registered trademarks under a single franchise. This will be easier to manage it as a whole as we move into the future. What this does suggest is that SQEX is clearly thinking about the future of the series and that we will likely continue to see new releases and additional merch, although I doubt we’ll ever get a NieR themed Mahjong set. This is merely to help SQEX cover their bases. lol

YoRHa Ver.1.3aᵃ/A2
This is a fan-made photo-manipulation pic that I made myself, aka it’s not official.
The all-boys cast from YoRHa Ver.1.3a will be making a comeback in this second rendition of the stage play that so effortlessly won our hearts this year!
TOKYO: Shibuya Cultural Center Owada, Sakura Hall – 4th Floor March 12-15, 7 performances
The YoRHa Ver.1.3a stage play will be coming back for a new version, bringing back the all-boy’s cast in the so-called YoRHa Ver.1.3aᵃ aka A2 stage play next March!
Tickets go on sale tomorrow!!!
The afternoon and evening performances on March 14 will be broadcast live on NicoNico, so stay tuned for the link to those pages in the future. You can purchase single tickets for 2500 points or 4000 points for both!
The entire cast from YoRHa Ver.1.3a will be returning, all except for Matsubara Rin, who played Anemone. Because of this, the entire character will be replaced with Jackass, as played by Kurotaka. Although the website hasn’t updated an image of him yet, you can view a couple shots of him on his agency’s page.
There will be recorded voices performed by:
Akiyama Kaoru: Voice of Pod153
Yasumoto Hiroki: Voice of Pod042/Zinnia
Like the previous Ver.1.3a stage play, the following talented musicians will be returning:
Guitar: Goto Takanori
Violin: Shirasu Kon
Percussion: Fukuoka Takashi
Along the same lines music, both Akaba Yukino and Nagaya Mikoto from GEMS COMPANY are listed in the credits for the “image songs”, so this is likely referring to their updated version of “Normandy” and “Gualdalcanal”.
This page will be updated in the event any additional informationon these events is released.
