Developer Bioware and publisher Electronic Arts have been on hand to reveal the voiceover cast for the upcoming single-player fantasy RPG Dragon Age: The Veilguard. The game is slated to arrive for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series in Fall 2024.
“Taking up spell and sword as Dragon Age’s newest hero, Rook, players battle alongside an extraordinary cast of heroes known as the Veilguard, featuring voiceover work from a cast of new actors and returning favorites revealed today.”
Much like the Inquisitor in the game’s predecessor, Rook debuts with four different English voice options – two North American and two British voices. They are provided by Erika Ishii (Apex Legends, Destiny 2), Jeff Berg (Battlefield 1, NCIS), Bryony Corrigan (Baldur’s Gate 3, Good Omens) and Alex Jordan (Cyberpunk 2077, The Amazing World of Gumball).
When it comes to the game’s heroic cast of companions, here’s who you can look forward to:
- Ali Hillis (Mass Effect 3, Naruto) returns to the fray as Harding, the dwarven scout, a Dragon Age: Inquisition hero with a big heart, a positive outlook, and a ready bow – as well as unexpected magical powers.
- Ike Amadi (Mass Effect 3, Halo 5: Guardians, Insomniac’s Spider-Man) as Davrin, a bold and charming Grey Warden who has made a name for himself as a monster hunter.
- Jee Young Han (Perry Mason, Unprisoned) as Bellara, a creative and romantic Veil Jumper obsessed with uncovering ancient secrets.
- Jessica Clark (True Blood, Pocket Listing) as Neve, a cynic fighting for a better future, both as a private detective and a member of Tevinter’s rebellious Shadow Dragons.
- Jin Maley (Star Trek: Picard, Silicon Valley) as Taash, a dragon hunter allied with the Lords of Fortune who lives for adventure and doesn’t mind taking risks.
- Nick Boraine (Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Black Sails) as Emmrich, a necromancer of Nevarra’s Mourn Watch who comes complete with a skeletal assistant, Manfred, voiced by Matthew Mercer (Critical Role, Fallout 4).
- Zach Mendez (Horizon Forbidden West, Married Alive) as Lucanis, a poised & pragmatic assassin who descends from the bloodline of the House of Crows, a criminal organization renowned throughout Thedas.
