Atlus revealed the voice cast for the American version of Persona 5. If you did not hear about it, the American version will be playable only in English, but Atlus is considering including the original Japanese voice track as DLC, although this has not yet been decided. This means the English voice cast for Persona 5 should be good, since it is the only option we poor Westerners will have.
The cast is:
- Xander Mobus as the protagonist
- Cassandra Morris as Morgana
- Max Mittelman as Ryuji Sakamoto
- Erika Harlacher as Ann Takamaki
- Matt Mercer as Yusuke Kitagawa
- Cherami Leigh as Makoto Niijima
- Erica Lindbeck as Futaba Sakura
- Xanthe Huynh as Haru Okumura
- Robbie Daymond as Goro Akechi
Most of the voice actors have worked on JRPG dubs for some time, and one of the most notable games they have in common is Xenoblade Chronicles X. In addition, Max Mittelman is providing the American voice of Saitama in One Punch Man, one of the best anime series today. Below, you can watch an interview from Atlus USA (in English) with Xander Mobus, who recently played the announcer in Super Smash Bros for Wii U and 3DS and will play the protagonist in Persona 5, as well as an interview with Erika Harlacher, who will play Ann Takamaki. Below the interviews, there are also videos released by Atlus introducing the two characters, where you can hear the English dub as well.
