Overview
- Atlus announced the new English voice cast on June 16, 2026, naming Nazeeh Tarsha as the protagonist, Paul Castro Jr. as Yosuke, Anne Yatco as Chie, Brianna Knickerbocker as Yukiko, and Ari Thrash as Marie.
- The Japanese voice cast from the original release has been retained, creating a split approach to localization that keeps the original Japanese performances while replacing the established English dub.
- Fans reacted strongly online to the recast with a mix of disappointment and support, including original Yukiko actor Amanda Winn Lee publicly welcoming Brianna Knickerbocker and other newcomers expressing deep respect for the roles they inherit.
- Marie’s inclusion in the announced cast is a clear sign that Persona 4 Golden content will be part of Revival, and Atlus will elaborate further during a Persona 4 Revival broadcast on June 18, 2026 and a demo event in Japan in July 2026.
- Persona 4 Revival is scheduled to launch worldwide on February 18, 2027 for Windows PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, and the recasting raises questions about how Western players will receive the remake compared with the beloved original English dub.
