Persona 4 Revival Keeps Bosch as Adachi, Recasts Everyone Else

Atlus West's new Persona 4 Revival cast reveals Johnny Yong Bosch as the lone returning English voice, with Dojima and Nanako recast for the remake.

Atlus West announced on X on Monday the English cast for four supporting characters in Persona 4 Revival, its remake of the 2008 role-playing game, according to Anime News Network. The lineup includes Judy Alice Lee as Aika Nakamura — a new social link character taken from the anime — Courtney Shaw as Nanako Dojima, Ray Chase as Ryotaro Dojima, and Johnny Yong Bosch as Tohru Adachi. ANN reports that Shaw replaces Karen Strassman and Chase replaces J.B. Blanc, while Bosch is reprising his role from the original dub. GosuGamers frames the reveal bluntly: only Bosch survived the remake's English voice-actor overhaul. The publisher notes Bosch also voiced Adachi across the Persona 4 spin-offs, including Persona 4 Arena, Persona Q, and Persona 4: Dancing All Night, making his return the throughline fans expected.

The surprise is not just who was cast but who was kept. According to GosuGamers, Bosch voiced both the protagonist and Adachi in the original game, but in Revival he returns only as Adachi, with Nazeeh Tarsha — whom GosuGamers credits as Gaul in Monster Hunter Stories 3 and Seth Lowell in Zenless Zone Zero — now cast as Yu Narukami. GosuGamers says Bosch's return has sparked excitement in the community, and the outlet's full confirmed cast list shows a lineup heavy with recognizable game and anime names, from Anne Yatco's Chie to Abby Trott's Rise to Daman Mills' Kanji.

GosuGamers compiled the complete confirmed English and Japanese rosters, and the contrast is striking: while the English side sees sweeping recasting, all Japanese voice actors reprise their roles. The Japanese lineup keeps Daisuke Namikawa as Narukami, Yui Horie as Chie, Rie Kugimiya as Rise, Tomokazu Seki as Kanji, Romi Park as Naoto, and Kappei Yamaguchi as Teddie, with Aoi Yuuki voicing the new Aika Nakamura. Anime News Network corroborates the structural facts of the remake — that it features a new English voice cast, that animation studio MAPPA is handling all the animated cutscenes, and that Atlus West made the announcement Monday via X. Both outlets agree on the four newly announced supporting roles, giving fans a rare point of complete consensus across coverage.

On timing, the two outlets converge on the date but differ in precision: Anime News Network reports the game launches February 18 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox PC with Xbox Game Pass, and PC via Steam, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version following May 20, while GosuGamers specifies those dates as February 18, 2027 and May 20, 2027. ANN adds franchise context for newcomers: the original Persona 4 hit PlayStation 2 in 2008, was ported to Vita as Persona 4 Golden in 2011, and spawned spin-offs like Persona 4 Arena and Dancing All Night.
