As a free-to-play mobile spinoff, NieR Re[in]carnation may not have been the new NieR entry that fans have been waiting for so long, but the game has enjoyed its fair share of success nonetheless. Following launch in Japan in early 2021, it released in the West later that year, not long afterward, though it seems the game won’t be sticking around for much longer.
Square Enix has announced that NieR Re[in]carnation will be ending service on April 29. The final chapter of The People and the World will be released on March 28 and will serve as the conclusion to the game. Following that, the game will remain active for another month before going offline.
“We would like to express our deepest gratitude to our players for your patronage over the 2.5 years since we launched on July 28, 2021,” Square Enix wrote. “Until the end of service, we will continue to add content and characters, as well as hold various events and campaigns, so we hope you will continue to enjoy NieR Re[in]carnation until the end.”
Between now and its aforementioned final update, NieR Re[in]carnation will also be adding new story and content updates, new events, new missions, and more.
