NEWS: Final Fantasy XVI Game Reveals Japanese, English Cast

If I understand correctly, all the game's dialogue was recorded in English first which means that the Japanese audio is the dub version. That's kind of interesting, also the fact that the game was recorded in England, I'm not a native English-speaker but I think the majority of games, particularily JRPGs, I've played were recorded in the U.S. or Canada. As a Spanish speaker this kind of reminds me that Neutral Spanish dubs are exclusively made in Latin American countries, while Spain gets their own dubs (though in the case of videogames, for many years we had to use the European Spanish dub until Neutral Spanish dubbing in games became more common), but I haven't heard of many anime dubbed in Great Britain.
By the way, this is the first Final Fantasy game dubbed into Latin American Spanish and many other languages as well. This is actually pretty big news, very few Japanese videogames get dubbed into Neutral Spanish, the only ones I remember were Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4, Saint Seiya: Soldier's Soul and many Nintendo games like Breath of the Wild. It's cool hearing José Ángel Torres as Clive Rosfield, José has voiced many characters like David Martínez in Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Clemont in Pokémon XY and Atsushi Nakajima in Bungō Stray Dog, among others. Hope SE can dub FFVII Remake Part 2 into other languages as well.

Besides this,the only JRPG's that used England actors that I could think of was The Last Story and Xenoblade 1. I'm fine with all that,since the voice work in those,and from what we heard in this is fantastic.
