The ‘NieR: Automata’ Collaboration With ‘Final Fantasy XIV’ is Coming October 29
During today’s announcement about the details of the rather good MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV‘s upcoming 5.1 patch, titled ‘Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty’, it was revealed that the NieR Automata collaboration will be launching alongside it on Tuesday, October 29.
The collaboration had previously been announced to be a part of this post-Shadowbringers update, but the release date was unknown until now.
The team-up will see YorHa Dark Apocalypse start with a 24-player Alliance raid titled ‘The Copied Factory’ among the NieR-themed goodies on offer. This features battles against the kind of mechanical menaces found in the bizarre and beautiful Yoko Taro action RPG. Taro has had a big hand in the writing and design of this, so it should feel like a natural continuation of that universe. That also means things might get a little off the wall.
The new dungeon is The Grand Cosmos, and the new FFXIV story content in the patch will carry on after the events of recent expansion Shadowbringers. You can find more info over at the official site.
Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers is out now on PS4 and PC.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
