What’s the Release Date for the Anime Adaptation of ‘Nier: Automata’?

The very first teaser released for the new anime seems very “proof of concept” from the start. Namely, it doesn’t reveal much about who is directing the adaptation, who will provide the voices for the characters, or even what the character designs will look like as an anime. The teaser simply shows walls of Japanese text pertaining to elements about Automata’s initial story with an ominous sketch of main protagonist 2B wielding her signature katana and standing alongside her robot comrade, Pod.
