Final Fantasy XVI's facial and voice capture has seemingly been completed in English first, and with a focus on characters with British accents.
Producer Naoki Yoshida appeared on streaming show
Washagana TV this weekend and – per a
Gematsu translation – said that, "This time, English recording is going first. And we have been focusing on British English." That focus on British English is likely down the game's high fantasy set-up
It's a rarity for Japanese games to record an English language version of the game first – but in this case Yoshida says it comes down to creating full facial capture for the game's characters. "We can’t possibly hand-animate every cut of a scene," he explained. "So this time we are doing full facial motion captures and then adding voices to that [...] So this is one of the reasons why the English version is ahead of others." He also explained that the facial capture extends beyond cutscenes.
Yoshida says the Japanese version will be handled "soon", but it's not clear if the game will feature entirely separate facial capture for English and Japanese versions.
