Square Enix shared a special PV video on YouTube that ended with the phrase “NieR: Automata to be continued.” This suggests we could see a new NieR: Automata project, though the vagueness means it is uncertain if it could be related to the anime adaptation, a game, or book. Additional statements also confirmed current sales figures for that game and NieR Replicant. 

First, here’s the “NieR: Automata to be continued” announcement video suggesting a new project like a game or other form of media is in the works. It’s specifically designed to honor the fact that this game passed 10 million units sold physically and digitally worldwide. That applies to the Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions of the game. At the 5:48 mark of the PV, the screen scrambles and the ominous text suggesting more is in development shows up.

Square Enix also shared new key art on social media honoring the sales milestone. That features 2B at the forefront, with 9S right behind her and A2 at the back.

As for the new sales figure update for NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139, that wasn’t accompanied by a special video. Square Enix just took to social media to share the update. It’s now at two million copies sold worldwide digitally and physically. That takes into account the PS4, Xbox One, and PC copies.

There is a piece of art shared to commemorate that, however.

NieR: Automata is available on the Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC, the anime is on Crunchyroll, and Square Enix’s books division handled a number of spin-off books worldwide.

Square Enix has announced that it will hold a live stream to celebrate the 9th anniversary of NieR: Automata on Friday, February 20, 2026, at 7:30 PM JST (5:30 AM ET). The stream will be available in Japanese worldwide via YouTube, as well as the Japan-exclusive Niconico platform.

This stream will feature four of the game's key staff members: Producer Yosuke Saito, Creative Director Yoko Taro, Composer Keiichi Okabe, and Senior Game Designer Takahisa Taura. The four will hold a lighthearted talk show for around two hours. Square Enix will afterward hold an after-talk session exclusively available to Niconico Premium members. The company has also put up a fine print stating that there will be no new major reveals related to the game series on either stream.

Niconico is also holding a public lottery that give Japanese residents the chance to watch the talk show physically in Tokyo. After closing applications on January 18, 2026, it will inform the winners on January 31, 2026. They must then purchase a ticket for 999 yen (~$6.35) by February 7, 2026, to confirm their attendance.

The 9th anniversary of NieR: Automata will formally fall on February 23, 2026. Square Enix first released the game for PlayStation 4 in Japan on February 23, 2017. NieR: Automata has also since been made available for PC, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. It is also playable on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch 2 via backward compatibility.
