An expressive AI translator taking on quotes for The Legend of Heroes: Kai no Kiseki will appear at Tokyo Game Show 2024. Digital Hearts has announced that it will showcase the AI engine ELLA (Expressive Localization and Linguistic AI) at 4Gamer‘s booth in Makuhari Messe for the whole duration of the event.
Digital Hearts will also work with Nihon Falcom to showcase the translation AI. The companies will first prepare original lines based on scenes from the game. ELLA will then provide five candidate lines in each of the four available languages: Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese.
The public will also be able to vote for their favorite lines that suit the characters the best, but Nihon Falcom’s president Toshihiro Kondo will make the final call. Digital Hearts will hold sweepstakes based on this poll, where it will hand over exclusive posters to 50 winners who place the same votes as Kondo did.
This AI quote generator booth will add another entry to the list of spots related to Kai no Kiseki at TGS 2024. Nihon Falcom had previously announced that it will set up playable demo builds of the game at Konami’s booth for the event’s whole duration. The company will also hold a talk show with the game’s Japanese voice actors and a couple of live concerts by the Falcom jdk Band on Sunday, September 29, 2024.
The Legend of Heroes: Kai no Kiseki ~Farewell, O Zemuria~ will be available for PlayStation 5 and 4 in Japan and East Asia on September 26, 2024. That’s the exact same day Tokyo Game Show 2024 starts running at Makuhari Messe until September 29, 2024.
