The official US Final Fantasy IV DS website has released this video. I am hoping that the final game will not be Japanese voices with English subtitles, because I'll be seriously pissed off if they are.

I already thought we had Final Fantasy IV on the DS already. Then I was reminded that it was on the Game Boy Advance not the DS.

There may be the option to choose the language of the voices. Because if they are subbed then how is that any different from going through text screens.

And Cecil's sword looks suspiciously like the Master sword.

I don't mind the subs. The japanese voices sound pretty good.
(Then again, this looks a lot like the original Japanese trailer, just re-edited and subbed so it may not even be showing the final US product)
I've played half way through the Japanese release and it is a really nice game so I will be picking it up when it gets released.

This is not a video from the game, it's a promotional video.

The actual game is regular text just like the original game was, and some of the more important scenes have voice acting in addition to the text.

Judging by Crystal Chronicles for DS, they will redub the game.

Personally, I don't care too much for the DS remake. I'm sticking with the GBA one, despite its flaws.

I have Final Fantasy IV for the GBA, so it is unlikely that I am going to be buying this version anyway...and I'm still waiting to get enough money for Final Fantasy VI (also a GBA remake) and New Super Mario Bros!

Unlikely it will be japanese only. But I hope they do include it, I much prefer it.

I hope it has subtiles because alot of the time american voice overs aren't that great. I mean I wouldn't mind it either way I speak and read both languages.

Considering how hard it was to find FFVI for GBA, I'm waiting until FFIV on DS comes out. Apparantly it has extra scenes that weren't in the original.

Ah, a video with English voices!

Hmmm... KluYa and Kain's voices are very good, but I dunno about Rosa. Cecil is alright, but I'll reserve judgement till later.

I have FF4 for SNES and GBA, and still want to play this version. It's one of my favorite games.

If only Breath of Fire 2 could be remade (other than as a direct port)...

That's good news, so it won't be subbed after all.

Yeah. They've already got two voice actors announced. Yuri Lowenthal is Cecil, and Liam O'Brien is Kain.

Yuri Lowenthal played Reks in Final Fantasy XII...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuri_Lowenthal

...and Liam O'Brien had played the brief role of Red XIII in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, along with Illidan Stormrage from World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade and Sanctus from Devil May Cry 4.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liam_O%27Brien

Oh, and Liam O'Brien is also the ADR Direction and English script adaptor for Naruto, as well as playing Gaara and Kotetsu Hagane.

Like I said, only the important scenes have voice acting, and even those still have the text, so technically it is subbed.

Yeah, but that's still quite a few scenes, from what I've seen on YouTube. I wonder who they'll rope in to play Zeromus?
