Square Enix had decided to jump on the pre-E3 game announcement bandwagon, making live their site for their recently announced game, NIER.

Looking over the screens and the college art film trailer, it looks like the game will be Square's answer to Bayonetta, which in turn was Platinum's answer to Devil May Cry.
