Fresh Persona 5 Trailer Reveals English Voice Work

Talk the talk

by Robert Ramsey Wed 19th Oct 2016

What do we think of this, then? Our first real taste of Persona 5's English voice work comes in the form of the role-playing game's latest English trailer - and it's already got fans squabbling over its quality. To be totally honest with you, it sounds pretty much exactly as we expected, and given that the series has had plenty of good voice work in the past, we can't say that we're particularly worried at this point.

Persona 5 is due out on the 14th February in both North America and Europe, but are you excited? Make like a Phantom Thief and stealth into the comments section below.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) is an assistant editor of Push Square, and has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Persona, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Trails, Tales — he's played 'em all. A little too much, some might say.

Sooooooooo excited for this one! Unlike most people I'm not bothered if it has Jap dubs or not. Love Persona 4 the way it came and sure I'll love this

They should come out with a Banjo-Tooie dub for us that don't like the English or Japanese dubs.

@mrobinson91 Most people don't care about the lack of dual audio.

Atlus games generally release dub-only, and, while I'd prefer dual audio, it's nothing I'm going to get my knickers in a twist about. All I expect from Atlus is little to no censorship and decent English vocals and, by and large, they rarely disappoint me.
