Yoko Taro is an eccentric Japanese game director and scenario writer, best known for the critically acclaimed *NieR* series and its predecessor, *Drakengard*.

Following the massive success of *NieR: Automata*, he continued to expand his universe across various media. As of 2026, Yoko Taro remains at Square Enix (often collaborating with external studios), teasing a highly anticipated, unannounced new console title that promises to be as beautifully depressing and unconventional as his past work.
