Prediction: NieR director Yoko Taro reveals his next game…
I might be a huge Yoko Taro stan who is constantly hoping the madman will announce a new game, but I really do think it could be in the cards for this Summer Game Fest. First off, Taro hasn’t released a major new game since NieR: Automata in 2017. While I am a fan of the now-defunct gacha games he has worked on, as well as the oft-forgotten Voice of Cards series, none of his post-Automata projects have been on the same level production-wise. Also, we know he has new projects in the works—in May NieR series producer Yosuke Sait revealed that he and Taro are working on a new game together, though they wouldn’t confirm if it was a NieR title. Just announce the dang thing already and give me something to live for! — Willa Rowe
