NieR: Automata Coming to Steam on March 10

Edit: Square Enix pulled the video detailing the Steam release date for NieR: Automata from their press site. We expect that this is due to a marketing arrangement with Sony, but nothing has been confirmed so far.

Looks like the mystery surrounding NieR: Automata‘s PC release date has been solved, as the game’s latest trailer lists a March 10 date for the Steam version. Platinum Games‘ highly anticipated open world action RPG was announced for PC last year, but Square Enix had only confirmed a release date for the PlayStation 4 version so far, leaving PC gamers with a vague “2017” launch window.

    • SE has a marketing deal with Sony for this game. I’m guessing that part of that deal is that they should only market the PS4 version until that’s out and then they can talk about the Steam release. Somebody jumped the gun and uploaded the wrong trailer to the press site, doesn’t mean that the date is incorrect, just that they don’t want to talk about it right now.
