Players may choose between the original English voices or Japanese voices in Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP. These options will likely be available in all regions that the game is sold in.
“In RePOP, players can enjoy the same voices as in the original version,” Yasuda said on Twitter. “And in RePOP, we have added a feature that allows users all over the world to enjoy the Japanese voices.”

Lastly, the character designs for Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP will continue to be drawn and completed by illustrator Nekoshowgun. She also designed Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP’s new loading screen visuals.
