Persona 5 The Phantom X English Dub Guide: Cast & Release Timeline

Persona 5 The Phantom X Artwork 8

Persona 5 The Phantom X does not have an official English dub as of late 2025, and there has been no confirmed release window for one from Sega or Perfect World. The game is fully voiced in Japanese with English text and UI on global servers.​

Current Voice Options and Localization

P5X ships with:

  • Audio: Japanese only (no English, no other dubs).​
  • Text/UI: English or Japanese depending on region/server; language is tied to server selection rather than a separate “dub” toggle.​

Steam and mobile builds allow changing interface language, but this does not change voice audio, which remains Japanese across all regions.​

Japanese Voice Cast (No English Cast Yet)

Because there’s no English dub, only the Japanese cast is officially credited for voiced roles.​

Selected examples:

  • Wonder (Protagonist) – voiced in Japanese by a dedicated P5X VA, distinct from Joker’s actor; credits list him under the main cast in official databases.​
  • New P5X originals like Shun Kano, Riko Tanemura, and Tomoko Noge all have named Japanese VAs, while returning characters (e.g., Joker, Makoto) reuse or parallel their established Japanese actors where they appear.​

No official material lists any English voice actors for P5X; pages that track VAs (IMDb, BehindTheVoiceActors) only show Japanese names or leave English entries blank.​

Release Timeline and Dub Prospects

Coverage from guides and news outlets consistently notes that:

  • P5X launched globally on PC and mobile without an English dub, unlike Persona 5 and Royal.​
  • As of mid–late 2025, no announcement, dev letter, or roadmap has promised an English voice track or casting process.​

Speculation about union rules and dubbing costs appears in community discussions, but there is no verified schedule or casting leak for an English dub, so any claimed date would be conjecture.​

Fan Dubs, Fan Casting, and Community Projects

In response to the lack of a dub, some creators have produced:

  • Fan-dubbed cutscenes where YouTubers overlay English readings on top of in-game footage.​
  • Fan cast lists imagining which existing Persona 5 English actors (e.g., Xander Mobus as Joker) would reprise roles if a dub ever happened.​

These projects are entirely unofficial and do not indicate an upcoming official dub, but they show ongoing interest in an English-voiced version.​​

How to Stay Updated on Any Dub News

To track any future change in dub status:

  • Watch official news on the P5X site and support pages, especially language-support articles and major update announcements.​
  • Follow reliable news hubs and wikis that monitor localization updates, patch notes, and voice-related changes for P5X.​

Until an official statement appears, the safest assumption is that Persona 5 The Phantom X will remain Japanese-voiced only, with English and Japanese text as the primary localization features.
