\nAfter a long wait of no news, it’s finally been confirmed that the Nier: Automata<\/strong> anime is finally returning some time this year.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Nier: Automata anime started last January, adapting the popular RPG into animated form for the first time, later finishing in July. It then wasn’t until November that we got confirmation the anime would return at all with a second cour, but there’s been dead silence from the anime’s official English Twitter since then, and the Japanese Twitter appears to have just been sharing news about… postcards? In any case, there’s actually some good news, as it was confirmed yesterday that the second cour of the anime will begin in 2024. You can see in the tweet below that this announcement was paired with 2B in not the most comfortable looking of positions.\n<\/p>\n

\nThose that have played the game probably have an inkling as to what this particular visual is referencing, but for the presumably three of you that have only watched the anime, I won’t spoil anything for you. Outside of that, though, details are incredibly slim. As of right now, the release window really just is any time in 2024, so sorry to those of you that are desperate to watch more of it.\n<\/p>\n
