While English-speaking Persona 5<\/strong><\/em> fans are currently eagerly awaiting the upcoming release of Persona 5 Strikers<\/em><\/a> in the west, it wasn’t long ago that they were upset at the lack of translation news. Now news has come to light explaining why it took so long for even a localization announcement to be made.<\/p>\n

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers<\/em>, as it’s known in Japan, released nearly a year ago, on February 20. Months followed with zero information coming from Sega or Atlus regarding the game’s potential translation, aside from a few leaks pointing to an English version of Persona 5 Strikers<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cassandra Lee Morris, the English dub voice of Morgana, held a virtual chat with fellow voice actor Erika Harlacher, who provides the voice of Phantom Thief Ann Takamaki. During the nearly hour-long conversation, the two covered the dubbing process, where the Persona 5<\/em> voice actors recorded their lines from home<\/a>. Initially, the plan was to have everyone report to a recording studio and perform their lines traditionally. However, the eruption of the COVID-19 pandemic forced the localization team to rethink the plan and record from home.<\/p>\n
