Persona 5 Unsurprisingly Won’t Have Japanese Option for Localization

<p>Atlus hasn&&num;8217&semi;t exactly been known for doing localizations of games that retain the original language&period; While other companies sometimes give the option to switch between Japanese or English for dialogue audio and text&comma; and some companies force players to have Japanese audio with English text&comma; Atlus tends to force players into only having English audio and text&period; So it comes as no surprise that the localized version of <em>Persona 5 <&sol;em>will be arriving on Valentine&&num;8217&semi;s Day in 2017 without any remnants of Japanese voice-over&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>With that being said&comma; the <em>Persona <&sol;em>series has almost always had an excellent voice cast for its English releases&period; It is just unfortunate for a game series that is this rooted in Japanese culture to refuse to include the Japanese language&period; However&comma; it seems the streak of great casting for its localized release will persist as Cassandra Lee Morris has teased that she will be voicing Morgana from <em>Persona 5<&sol;em>&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<blockquote class&equals;"twitter-tweet" data-width&equals;"500" data-dnt&equals;"true">&NewLine;<p lang&equals;"en" dir&equals;"ltr">Meow 😽<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>&mdash&semi; Cassandra Lee Morris &lpar;&commat;SoCassandra&rpar; <a href&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;twitter&period;com&sol;SoCassandra&sol;status&sol;742828822278471680&quest;ref&lowbar;src&equals;twsrc&percnt;5Etfw">June 14&comma; 2016<&sol;a><&sol;p><&sol;blockquote>&NewLine;<p><script async src&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;platform&period;twitter&period;com&sol;widgets&period;js" charset&equals;"utf-8"><&sol;script><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><em>Persona 5 <&sol;em>was <a href&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;bagogames&period;com&sol;persona-5-release-date-announced-north-america&sol;">recently announced<&sol;a> to not be coming to North America until February 14th&comma; 2017&period; It will release for PS4 and PS3&comma; with several collector&&num;8217&semi;s editions coming out including the &&num;8220&semi;Take Your Heart&&num;8221&semi; edition&comma; which will be exclusive to the PS4&period; <em>Persona 5 <&sol;em><a href&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;bagogames&period;com&sol;persona-5-coming-japan-september-15th&sol;">will be out in Japan on September 15th&comma; 2017<&sol;a>&comma; so if you can&&num;8217&semi;t wait and desperately want Japanese voice-over then I would recommend considering importing the game&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><strong>Source&colon; <a href&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;www&period;siliconera&period;com&sol;2016&sol;06&sol;14&sol;persona-5-wont-feature-dual-audio-gets-morganas-english-voiceover-sample-e3-2016&sol;">Siliconera<&sol;a><&sol;strong><&sol;p>&NewLine;
