Voice actor Yuri Lowenthal has offered a tease – well, perhaps more of a vicious peeling back of the curtain – about the Persona 4 Remake on BlueSky. Persona 4 Remake, a game that has not been officially announced yet, will not be having him back as the voice of Yosuke, the actor claims. Bummer!
The post, which still remains up on Yuri’s social media as of writing, alleges the following, “And for those who keep asking, no, I will not be returning as Yosuke for the Persona 4 remake. I asked. Maybe I even begged, but they don’t want me to come back.”
This is not the first time Yuri has tipped his hat and talked about things a little earlier than he maybe should. It was only a few months ago when he talked candidly about Peter Parker’s role in Spider Man 3. That game, again not revealed yet, was something we assumed was coming but had yet to get any official tease from the developer or publisher. Yet Yuri, channeling his IDGAF attitude, was willing to speak about work on it ahead of time.
Whether or not Yuri will get in trouble for this is anyone’s guess. He’s Yuri Lowenthal, one of the big names in voice acting. People love his work and his work, and him getting torn away from a role due to his outspoken nature would probably lead to some backlash from his fans, especially if that role was a sequel or remake.
And for those who keep asking, no, I will not be returning as Yosuke for the Persona 4 remake. I asked. Maybe I even begged, but they don’t want me to come back.
