As many Persona series fans will know, the English release of Persona 5 Strikers will be hitting Nintendo Switch on 23 February 2021 – more than one year after its original Japanese release. Well, as it turns out, current global events were partly to blame for this extensive wait.
During an online chat between Erika Harlacher (Ann’s voice actor) and Cassandra Lee Morris (Morgana’s voice actor), the two revealed that this one-year gap was due to the COVID-19 outbreak throughout 2020. Originally, the localization team had planned to conduct the game’s English voice recordings in April 2020 – but then a quarantine went into effect.
When this quarantine went on for longer than expected, the localization team then had to resort to a “Plan B” by sending its voice actors microphones and equipment to record voice lines remotely instead. Amidst this, Harlacher and Morris recall wanting to assure fans that an English localization was indeed in the works – but could not reveal such information at the time.
