![]() ![]() ![]() Voiceovers were not the only things that had to be sacrificed on Summon Night 5’s road to localization. Though Summon Night 5 has no voiced dialogue, the localization team has mentioned that it will be possible to have future titles dubbed if the fanbase for the series shows substantial growth and support. Unfortunately, small sales for the title prevented it from being able to afford dubbed dialogue. However, holding the triangle button just before the animation plays lets you listen to the original Japanese song, if that’s more your style.Īnother thing that will become quite obvious to players is the unspoken dialogue throughout the game. One of the very first things players may notice when starting up the game is that the opening animation is in English. To do that, certain things had to be changed between the Japanese and English versions, and we have just learned via the game’s localization notes what some of those changes were. So, the team behind the localization was saddled with the hefty task of “getting it right” and ensuring that western players’ first experience with the series left a favorable impression. However, with the original source measuring up to a grand total of 600,000 Japanese characters, Summon Night 5 is no doubt a massive game. Summon Night 5 releases tomorrow for the PlayStation Portable and the PlayStation Vita on the PlayStation Store, and it will be the very first in Summon Night’s main-numbered series of games to get a localization in English. ![]()
