“Final Fantasy XVI” producer Yoshida Naoki recently mentioned that the dialogue of the game is recorded in “British English” as the main language, and the Japanese dubbing will only appear in the later stages of development.
According to the VGC report, Square Enix usually uses Japanese as the main recording language, but Naoki Yoshida mentioned in a recent conversation that the reason for choosing English as the main language for recording is to capture the performers’ Facial expressions, the advantage of this is that you don’t need to manually adjust each person’s face when editing, and voice recording is also being performed while capturing actors.
But not every scene will be carried out in this way, but because of the existing execution process, the progress of English dubbing goes very fast, and the work of Japanese dubbing will soon begin.
Previously, Naoki Yoshida mentioned in the live broadcast of Square Enix that the English dubbing progress of “Final Fantasy XVI” is almost complete, but this statement has more or less made many players misunderstand that the progress of Japanese is similar. In fact, the work of Japanese dubbing It hasn’t officially started yet.
“Final Fantasy XVI” announced the game as a PS5 exclusive in the summer of 2020. The game is mainly active in the Middle Ages. Judging from the current trailer, most of the actors are voice performers from the UK.
“We really want to show something at the Tokyo Game Show in 2021, but in fact we may not be able to meet this deadline. We really want to let everyone see the face of the game as soon as possible. If we show the content of these games at the same time , You can play it right away, wouldn’t it feel better?” Naoki Yoshida said.
Judging from the current situation, Naoki Yoshida intends to show the game content only when the game is about to be released. The currently known game progress includes: the script is completed, the English dubbing is about to be completed, and the Japanese dubbing has not yet officially started. There is not much information that the outside world can know. It seems that I want to see more “Final Fantasy XVI” related information and have to wait.
