Will There Be An English Dub Version?!

Presently, there isn’t any information available on an English Dub version of the Netflix Shaman King reboot. But, it is highly unlikely the streaming service would go through the trouble of securing a license and rebooting the series if there isn’t going to be an Eng Dub version.
