'NieR:Automata Ver1.1a' Announces Pair of Supporting Cast

The official website of the NieR:Automata Ver1.1a television anime revealed a pair of additional cast, a new key visual (pictured), and a character promo for Adam & Eve. The anime series adapting PlatinumGames and Square Enix's action role-playing game will begin airing in January 2023. The cast is reprising their roles from the video game.

Daisuke Namikawa (JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 6: Stone Ocean) and Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Nanatsu no Taizai) are joining the cast as Adam and Eve, respectively. Aoi Yuuki (Boku no Hero Academia) was previously announced as Pascal.

Ryouji Masuyama (Blend-S) is directing the anime series at A-1 Pictures. Masuyama is also in charge of the series composition alongside the video game's original creator Taro Yoko. Jun Nakai (Lord El-Melloi II Sei no Jikenbo) is serving as both the character designer and chief animation director. MONACA (Summertime Render) is composing the music.

Developed by PlatinumGames, NieR:Automata was published by Square Enix on PlayStation 4 in Japan in February 2017, followed by North America and PAL countries in March of that year. The game was also released on PC in the same month and on Xbox One in June 2018. The game serves as a sequel to the 2010 video game NieR—a spin-off to the Drakengard game series.
