When it was first announced at E3, the PS4 sequel to Nier sounded as if it was a project being co-developed by both Square Enix and Platinum Games. In fact, the game is essentially an in-house Platinum project that's being directed by Taro Yoko, the Square Enix staffer who also directed the original.
"Yes, the development is mostly taking place here at Platinum [in Osaka], and in our Tokyo office," designer Yasuhisa Taura tells GameSpot. "But we are of course getting help from Square Enix, and the composer for the original game is back to make new music. Also, the character design is being done by Akihiko Yoshida who works on CyDesignation, so we are borrowing people from other companies. But the majority of development is being done here."
