An official collaboration event for the NieR game series will be held at the World Cosplay Summit 2024. The event will appear between August 2-4, 2024 at the Aichi Arts Center in Nagoya, and more information will appear in late May 2024.
The collaboration will consist of three different events, which will be taking place on the Oasis 21 special stage on August 4, 2024. The first one is the NieR World Cosplay Report 2024. It will be a photo contest. Participants can cosplay any character from the NieR series, and they can be of nationality or place of residence. Cosplay photos taken in the past are accepted, including invididual, pair, and group photos.
From the submitted pictures, 10 notable entries will be selected and awarded special prizes. The most outstanding winner will receive a trophy, and the other 9 winners will receive signed autographs and other special gifts. These will be announced during the World Cosplay Summit 2024. Applications for the NieR World Cosplay Report 2024 will be available between June 1 to July 14, 202 from the World Cosplay Summit 2024 official website.
The second event will be the “Cosplay Summit Selection with NieR.” A special NieR-themed cosplay runway will be featured at the Oasis 21 special stage on August 4. Participants will be able to apply online all throughout the month of June 2024. In the case of too many cosplayers applying for the runway, the World Cosplay Summit management office will select the participants.
Meanwhile, the third and final event will be the “Otaku Judge NieR:QuizMaster12024 Prestige.” This will be a themed quiz, and it will appear ahead of the Fall 2024 collaboration event with the Otaku Judge mobile quiz app. 10 participants who answer the quiz correctly will receive special goods and prizes. Once again, the location will be the Oasis 21 special stage on August 4, and admission to the quiz will be free of charge.
As a reminder, NieR series producer Yosuke Saito recently said that he is in talks with series director Yoko Taro and composer Keiichi Okabe to work on a new game that “might be NieR, or might not be NieR.”
