Atlus has confirmed another delay for Persona 5.
The game will forgo its planned February 14th release date for one on April 5th of next year, on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.
To make up for the delay, Atlus is offering Japanese language voices as free downloadable content.
Finally, Atlus noted the game will be playable with Japanese audio and English text during this year’s PlayStation Experience.

November 16, 2016 at 3:12 pmOh hey, they’re actually giving us the Japanese voices.
Now I can finally start looking forward to this thing!

This is much to early to be an April Fool’s prank. I need a thick, hearty sauce on this news.

November 16, 2016 at 3:13 pmI’m watching the stream right now. It’s legit.

November 16, 2016 at 3:13 pmJunior GAFfer had this info as well. It’s been known for at least Europe for a few days now.

November 16, 2016 at 3:17 pm>To make up for the delay, Atlus is offering Japanese language voices as free downloadable content.
So, they’re only doing this because there’s a delay?
Am I right in assuming that they’d still be fucking people who prefer glorious subs over, ugh, earcancer if there wasn’t a delay?
Captain Vidya
November 16, 2016 at 3:18 pmFuck, guess that means I don’t need to wait for that undub patch now. This just made my day. What’s another two months of waiting if it means Atlus is actually listening now?

November 16, 2016 at 3:19 pmLooking at the original date it was going to come out, smart move. It would’ve been slaughtered.
Chocolate ISISCream
November 16, 2016 at 3:20 pmWow, that’s pretty fucking pathetic of Atlus to cave into whiny subfag babies.
Eldhin Hellknight
November 16, 2016 at 3:20 pmAtlus adding Japanese VA? Could it be possible? Damn, that is as surprising as the Hollow Realization censorship only for Japan.
Uncle Ocelot
November 16, 2016 at 3:22 pmFucking hell… Well, if I get dual audio out of it I can let it slide.
Uncle Ocelot
November 16, 2016 at 3:23 pmYeah, January-March is weirdly crowded with some big stuff, including an entire console launch.
Raziel Barkrai
November 16, 2016 at 3:24 pmDon’t make this free for a certain amount of time Atlus. I missed out on free quests for Apocalypse because of a shipping mistake.
Zero Eternity
November 16, 2016 at 3:25 pmHuh subbers won that battle. Good for the people who want dual audio.
AliasAlterego
November 16, 2016 at 3:27 pmNow I can play a game listening to a language I have no actual understanding of while pretending that I can recognize good acting delivery on said language!

November 16, 2016 at 3:33 pmGreat birthday present Atlus, at least dual audio is confirmed so I don’t have to listen to American Morgana https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/fed819b0d52d181fd841cb2cbafcd32207502d2c72a0ba4d096624a58e5d3a5d.jpg
Jack
November 16, 2016 at 3:33 pmI sincerely hope you are bait
static5225
November 16, 2016 at 3:34 pmThis was my thought, too. Is Atlus doing this just as compensation for delaying P5 or is the publisher actually realizing the consumers’ demands for dual audio? It would be very sh***y of them to not offer dual audio for their next games.
Xekus
November 16, 2016 at 3:34 pmI’ll gladly take the delay for the sake of japanese VA. thank god Atlus paid attention to atleast some of the feedback.
Uncle Ocelot
November 16, 2016 at 3:35 pmNo deserves to endure EN Morgana’s voice.

November 16, 2016 at 3:35 pmGood on Atlus for giving the Japanese VO. I guess they had to balance the delay news with something.

November 16, 2016 at 3:40 pmYou can “buy” free DLC on PSN even if you don’t own the game, and then download it anytime after that.

November 16, 2016 at 3:45 pmI’ll just enjoy good voice acting finally on a persona game ;)

November 16, 2016 at 3:46 pmIt’s always good to give the consumer more options based on their preference. Especially when such a thing is so divisive. Good on Atlus, I hope they’ll make this decision more often.

Lezard Valeth
November 16, 2016 at 4:02 pmI’ll praise Atlus for this. That’s truly good news. suck for the delay but it’s totally worth the wait for you guys. More option is always better. the people angry about this are just bait. lonely soul attention seeking and can’t understand that people have different taste than theirs.
Definetly a Positive for P5 and Atlus.
Immahnoob
November 16, 2016 at 4:02 pmHohohoho… Would you look at that! They’re experimenting!
No, but really, this should tell everyone by now that Atlus not giving Dual until now really was not related to any type of difficulty, especially when we have such big VAs here.
Will3316
November 16, 2016 at 4:03 pmAll those delays this year are getting bunched up into the early months of next year. 2017 is going to be an insane year for video games I think.

Here’s the cast and who’s voicing who for anyone interested
Riagan
November 16, 2016 at 4:08 pmI’m willing to bet a sizable amount of cash that the delay is in direct correspondence to the contract negotiations with the voice actors for the Japanese VO to come west. I for one applaud this.
MAGAto
November 16, 2016 at 4:12 pmHope the delay is because the port(s) they’re working on took away too many resources.
FrankieL
November 16, 2016 at 4:26 pmMy question is why didn’t they just release the game at the original date and then release the Japanese voices when it was ready in April? Then everyone is happy. I personally won’t be playing with Japanese voices as I prefer dub. So this is very sad news from my perspective.
Neppers
November 16, 2016 at 4:39 pmAll that dub salt. Don’t worry, you guys can still listen to your Japanese characters in a Japanese game using Japanese honorifics in English, it’s just gonna be a while long :^)
Warrior90
November 16, 2016 at 4:40 pmBecause they didn’t delay it for the dual audio.
They delayed it, because they can’t get it done for valentines day.
Dewey Defeats Truman
November 16, 2016 at 4:46 pmI’ll gladly take a delay if it means dual audio. I’m not even one of those guys that loses their shit over the quality of a dub (while they’re not amazing on the whole they’re generally fine enough for me at least) but I mean, there’s no real good reason not to have dual audio in this day and age. It shouldn’t take this kind of fight just to get it.

November 16, 2016 at 4:49 pmAbout time ATLUS.
I hope they do more of this in the future.

November 16, 2016 at 4:54 pmThe Twitch stream comments during the announcement of the free Dual Audio DLC were glorious. Now this is the kind of Atlus I want to support.

I can read English, I can “writte” it, but if you talk me in english probably I will not be able understand you, so English voices for me, and for a lot of people of a lot of countries are understanding bad acting voices too, if I must choose I prefer Japanese voices, thanks, but I suppose that we should ear english because, everyone can understand english right? XD.
Anyway, what is your problem, is a bad thing give to the customers more options? XD

November 16, 2016 at 6:11 pmYES! DUAL AUDIO! Now if there’s no censorship and the localization stays true the original, then Atlus has a Day 1 buy from me.

vayanui8
November 16, 2016 at 9:00 pmIf I had to take a guess they probably either had the dual audio ready and were saving it as an ace up their sleeve in case something happened (like a delay) or they originally planned to charge for it as dlc. I would honestly be fine paying a small amount for the jp cast if it ensured more dual audio in the future though. I hope that dual audio becomes the standard for Atlus releases rather than the exception.
Guin
November 16, 2016 at 9:00 pmThe dubfags are more or less angry Westaboos which is ironic because they want to play a Japanese game.

November 16, 2016 at 11:12 pmEven if one doesn’t understand what they are saying, the conveying of emotion and tone is a big factor for a good experience. Many English VAs especially when it comes to dubbing a Japanese game don’t put much effort into it.

ScarredBushido
November 17, 2016 at 12:13 amThe decision to delay the game was explained by Atlus USA President
Naoto Hiraoka with the necessity to provide the best possible
localization, as the success of the game in Japan resulted in more
pressure for the western market.
The publisher does not want to compromise on the quality of the
script, and wants to ensure that the quality of the western release of
the game “reaches the same bar set by the Japanese release.”

Immahnoob
November 17, 2016 at 2:03 amThe censorship was patched in so it was already rated, I think I already corrected you on that one.
SullenSamurai
November 17, 2016 at 2:10 amNah, man. There’s no way that’s true. Papa Atlus USA said it themselves: they had to undergo “herculean” trials to make it happen. There’s no way one of the biggest companies in the localization industry was trying to cut costs while only thinking about their precious “Atlus Faithful”, y’know, “the ones who still appreciate our English dubs and respect all the effort we put into localizing” (read: dubscrubs who would rather have less options than more).
This is honestly nothing but good news to me, but I was just over at Destructoid and virtually no one was hyped that it was getting dual audio—everyone was just whining that it had been pushed back again, some even blaming it on the addition of the Japanese audio track (which is not the problem; it’s being added as DLC, not to the discs themselves).

November 17, 2016 at 4:54 pmKeep on standing up fucking strawmen. Seriously you have to be fucking brain dead not to pick up on when vocals are delivered properly once you’ve watched enough of it. It’s the whole way we do things here that’s the problem. Voice actors go into the booth with zero previous knowledge of the script and very poor direction. Source: I follow a few english voice actors pretty closely on social media. Hell google it. Some voice actor wrote a long ass article blaming the fans for bad dubs, but they also explain why dubs aren’t up to the Japanese standard of voice acting. Of course no one starts watching subs with an immediate appreciation and understanding of good voice acting, but that doesn’t mean non Japanese people can’t recognize them. If I can read the translation then I can understand what they’re saying, through the translation. You pick up on little words, on where emotional cues come from. Nevermind the fact that the Japanese voice acting industry is leagues ahead of the Western one. But of course none of that matters, you’re just angry that some people don’t want to watch anime in english. Don’t know why the viewing habits of others bothers you so much. Is this response because an asshole told you English Dubs generally suck and insulted your intelligence? Cause if so now you’re not only ignorant but you’re a fucking hypocrite too. Take the high road ffs.

I use it as my layman’s video game news site—a way of keeping track of the plebeians’ view of things.
