Siliconera has learned today that Persona 5 won’t include both English and Japanese voiceover options, but Atlus will instead stick to English in-game text and voices for their localization.
According to Atlus, a stable of talented voice actors have provided the English voiceovers while Atlus’s own localization team offers an English script that “provides a faithful and engaging play experience.”
Here’s some off-screen footage that was shown at E3 2016 today [thanks, Persona Central]:

If you’re curious about the talent behind Morgana’s English voice, Cassandra Lee Morris appears to have teased that she is the voice for the character.
Persona 5 will release in Japan on September 15, 2016 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3. The game is headed to North America and South America on February 17, 2017.
