Square Enix revealed a new trailer forNieR Reincarnationalongside the dates for the game’s Closed Beta Test in Japan. Registration is from July 13 to 26, 2359 JST. The Closed Beta Test itself will run from August 19, 2025 JST to August 11, 2025 JST. 10,000 applications from iOS and Android users each will be accepted, for a total of 20K Closed Beta players. We learned all this via theNieR Reincarnationofficial site, which was updated with all this new info July 13.
As for how to apply to the Beta, first off theapplication formis only in Japanese so you’ll need some knowledge of the language. Next, it’s similar to all Square Enix mobile games in how you’ll simply need to create a Square Enix Membership account and then register with it. You should google how to do that and you’ll be fine. Last but not least though, remember there is no guarantee you’ll be picked, as only 20,000 players will be selected. Moreover, as usual the rules specifically state the CBT is only open to Japanese residents, and we’ll only know how hard this will be enforced or not when the Closed Beta Test starts.
Net up is the trailer, which most notably reveals the turn-based like battle system ofNier Reincarnation:
Artwork of some of the characters were revealed as well.
One of the protagonists, called “White Girl”, which I personally find incredibly funny as a name for obvious reasons.
The ghost-like thing with her, called “Mama”.
Some of the monster types in the game.
A cool key visual artwork. Everything was drawn by Akihiko Yoshida.
