Nier dated, hitting this spring

Neir’s release date is nigh. Yesterday afternoon, Square Enix confirmed that the first entry in the odd Action RPG “franchise” is slated to hit the Xbox 360 and PS3 sometime during this tropical cyclone season — spring if you’re not into weather junk.

If you’re not familiar with Nier, we highly suggest you watch this trailer. It features a screaming woman and the game’s logo moving ever closer to the screen. Or if you’re feeling particularly froggy, hit this bit of TGS literature, which deals with the Gestalt variant of the game.

Also, that’s a new screenshot in the above. It’s a chick and some giant troll thing.
