Recently-founded Tokyo-based publisher Cloud Leopard Entertainment announced during a livestream that it will launch the game in Summer 2020 with both subtitles and voice acting in Japanese, English, Chinese (traditional and simplified for subtitles), and Korean.

While the announcement was made for the Asian market, this means that English-speaking fans will finally be able to enjoy the game in their own language by importing it.

At the moment, we don’t know if Cloud Leopard, which does have global publishing ambitions stated in their website intends to facilitate a worldwide launch of the game as well.

Incidentally, they also picked up publishing for the gorgeous Wings of Darkness by Production Exabilities.

We reached out to both Cloud Leopard and D3 Publisher to inquire about a possible western release, but for now, at least we know that Onechanbara Origin will be released in English, and that’s great news.

If you’re unfamiliar with Onechanbara Origins, it’s a remake for PS4 of the first two Onechanbara games.
