I realise this is an old article now, but it’s worth clearing up. The UK European release of Blue Dragon contains English, French and Japanese languages, although there are as far as I know 2 different European releases each lacking Japanese – they are English/French/German and English/Italian/Spanish only. Europeans don’t need to import a US or Asian copy just to get the original Japanese voicework, although the game is fully region free so that is an option.

@ Thomas

That is what I was told. The team behind Blue Dragon wants to let people who are casual RPG players enjoy Blue Dragon in their native language and for the hardcore J-RPG crowd they can listen to the original track.

Where are these other reports you speak of?

Wait… “each release has the original Japanese language track with subtitles for purists.”

This is contrary to every previous report. It’s been said there was no room on the European version for the Japanese VA. Are you sure about that?

Woot for Hanatarou seiyuu included. I was all upset to think that I’d have to play it with crappy English voices.

That’s nice of MS to take the extra care. I sincerely hope the title would sell well in here. I’m going to get the English copy in August if it’s region-free even I’ve beaten the game to death back in last Dec. I’ve seen some trailers and the English dub sounds pretty good, Tara Strong sounds a little mature for Kluke’s voice, compared to Kawasumi Ayako (Qwendelyn in Odin Sphere). Let’s just hope it’s region-free like so many other US 360 games.

I’d love to see Ms announce a firm release date. But they seem to be very vague with all their 1st party title release dates in second half of 2007. I know Halo 3 casts a HUGE shadow, but come on MS summer is the time make some money!

this is such great news. they are taking huge leaps in the right direction. now, let’s hope it doesn’t fall flat. it seems more often than not, a step in the right direction (as i see it) is rewarded with consumer apathy. saturn, dreamcast, beyond good and evil, seganet, ico … i think you get what i mean.
