Being developed by Platinum games.
* There are three main protagonists in the game: the girl in the trailer (who is a completely new character), a young boy, and a character not yet revealed.
* The story takes place in the same world, but most locations are new. Even if areas from the original Nier appear in the game, they will be completely redesigned.
* The theme of the game is "agaku," a Japanese word that means to struggle/desperately fight your way out of a situation. (According to the translator.)
* The story is completely new, and has very little connection to the original Nier.
* Characters from the previous game may make a brief cameo, but will not be a part of the main story.
* The development team is toying with the idea of allowing players to experience multiple playthroughs using each of the main characters.
* The reason Platinum Games was chosen to develop the game was because of the developer's ability to do fast-paced combat.
* The three protagonists may travel together at times, but not always. (This is still being decided.)
* The reason the game is on the PS4 is because of the platform's high specs.
* One of Platinum Games' goals is to have the game run at 60 FPS.
* The early version of the battle system's is described as very "Nier-like."
* There will be more towns and cities in the game, which will have a dilapidated look and feel to them.

There’s an official website for Bukkoro, but there’s not much detail on it, besides the above image drawn by his wife Yukiko Yoko, who is the illustrator for the Taiko: Drum Master series. It reads “I don’t really know any details…”
