The director says they’re recording ‘all character voices’ in English
I don’t fully know what to expect fromNieR Reincarnation, and I’m fine keeping it that way – but Ihavewondered about the current state of the western release. In a letter shared onTwitter, I got my answer: the iOS and Android game is still coming to North America and Europe, it’s just been quiet lately.

In the message, game directorDaichi Matsukawa apologized for a “lack of updates” aboutNieR Reincarnation. When the time is right, there will be news on the preregistration and launch timing.
He noted that the team is “currently in the process of localizing the English version and recording all character voices in English,” and that they’re planning to address bugs from the Japanese launch.
In terms of a potential timeline, Japan is gettingNieR ReincarnationonFebruary 18, so I hope you weren’t counting on a simultaneous launch (or planning to dig into this mobile game anytime soon). I’m expecting to play through all ofNieR Replicantbeforehand given that it’s still on target for April 23.
I’ve avoided gacha for most of my life, but whenNieRmusic is in the picture, I can’t turn away.
