Saying that the hype train is on, full force, for the upcoming North American / European release of Persona 5 is not an exaggerated statement. After having multiple records broken for Atlus regarding this release, we still have another 5 months to wait (next Valentine’s Day, on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4). In the meantime, we are getting a lot of trailers regarding the characters and their English voice-overs. Here is a summary of everything I’ve caught :
- The Protagonist
- Voiced by Xander Mobus: Disgaea 5, Tales from the Borderlands
- Ann Takamaki
- Voiced by Erika Harlacher: The Technomancer, Killer Instinct
- Morgana, the Phantom Thieves’ Felonious Feline Mascot
- Voiced by Cassandra Morris: Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX
- Ryuji Sakamoto
- Voiced by Max Mittelman: Fallout 4, Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst, Lego Dimensions
Just to remind us again of how great the E3 2016 was, here is the Japanese trailer that was given to us by Atlus:
Again, it looks like we’ll have everything that made the other games of the franchise great: inner self exploration, relationships, school activities, fantastical creatures and adventures, combined with a unique visual touch and an analysis of today’s society. This is quite a combo! I’m am so excited for this game to finally release. Are you anxious to play this? Were you a fan of the previous games? Let us know in the comments and forums.
