Despite the game not reaching its original stretch goals, PlayDek have managed to negotiate with well-known translators Alexander O. Smith and Joseph Reeder to work on Unsung Story, the publisher has announced.

Meanwhile, Reeder has worked with Square Enix as well, and was also involved with localizing a number of Matsuno titles, including Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions and Crimson Shroud.
