Since the reveal of Type-0 HD’s development and planned western release, a few voice actors have come forward to admit to their roles in the upcoming game – while at the same time confirming previous reports that voice recording had concluded for the title some years ago.

Now that the localization is official, Mathew Mercer has stepped forward to confirm he will play the bowman Trey, Cristina Vee will play the mace-wielding Cinque, and Orion Acaba will voice the lancer named Nine. Orion in particular had this to say on the subject:

“I am so proud, happy and thrilled to finally and officially announce that I will be playing the character “Nine” in the new Final Fantasy Type-0 game!!!! I have owned, played, and beat all of the previous Final Fantasy games and it is a true honor and privilege for me to now be a part of this wonderful story. I remember my last day recording for Nine close to two years ago, and as I drove home I welled up with tears of pure elation and joy. There have been a few times in my life where that has happened, and as I watched the giant trailer at E3 with Agito running, I stood there, watched and I felt that joy once again. More to come!”
