Voice actor hints at North American Xenoblade localization, month for European release
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Nintendo of Europe made a surprising announcement about a month ago that Xenoblade Chronicles will be hitting store shelves this year. Gamers in North America, however, are still waiting for a localization confirmation.
If Nintendo of America is planning on releasing the title, we won’t be hearing anything official until E3. There is a small hint, though, that it will be brought stateside. Peter Dickson, a voice actor working on the European release, posted the following information on his website:
“Peter has been cast as the Emperor Sorean – the leader of the High Entia in the cult Nintendo RPG Xenoblade Chronicles. The game will be released Autumn 2011 in UK, Europe and USA. Peter is thrilled to have played such a leading role in a massively successful Nintendo title.”
Keep in mind that nothing has been confirmed yet, and it’s certainly possible that Dickson simply assumed that the game will ship in North America. Again, we’ll have to wait until E3 before we know the fate of Xenoblade in North America.
In other news, Dickson said on his Twitter account a few weeks ago that Xenoblade will launch in Europe this September. Adam Howden, voice actor for Shulk, seems to be in agreement. Nintendo of Europe has yet to confirm the game’s release date.
