Who are Ananta's voice actors?
Nobody knows yet. NetEase has published no cast list for any of the four voiced languages, and the official character profiles of the Captain, Shi Ye, Taffy, Richie, Wei Yinglong and Seymour name no actors, as of Nov 1, 2026. Names that circulate on fan sites and in comment threads are guesses unless NetEase or the actors themselves confirm them. NetEase has not said when it will name the cast.
Does Ananta have an English dub?
Yes. Steam marks English as a language with full audio support, alongside Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Korean. Every trailer NetEase has released is on Trailers.
Can you switch the voice language?
Probably, though NetEase has not described the setting. Steam lists four voice languages for one release, and Japanese press reported from Steam that Japanese is supported for the interface, subtitles and full voice. How to change it in game will be clear at launch.
Is the whole game voiced?
The story is meant to be. Producer Ash told Famitsu that the story is planned to be fully voiced in principle (Sep 30, 2025). The Captain is chosen as a man or a woman at the start, and the two differ in dialogue and gestures (Story), so the main role has two voices in each language. NetEase has not said whether side quests and the more than 100 citizens with their own stories are voiced too (How to Get Characters).
Which languages can I read Ananta in?
Sixteen, by Steam's list: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish for Spain and for Latin America, Russian, Japanese, Polish, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Vietnamese, Arabic, Korean, Portuguese for Portugal, and Thai. Brazilian Portuguese is not listed separately (read Nov 1, 2026). The App Store listing names only English and Chinese, which reflects the pre-order build Apple holds rather than the game's final languages (Mobile Version).
