Ellie from The Last of Us leads the cast of The Witness
The voice actors for Jonathan Blow's The Witness finished their recording sessions. They're a pack of fresh faces, too. There's Ashley Johnson (Ellie in The Last of Us), Phil LaMarr (Ratbag in Shadow of Mordor), Matthew Waterson (Sir Lucan in The Order: 1886), and Terra Deva (a musician in the Swiss group Shakedown).
Sounds like a great team. Let's see how their roles play out in The Witness, a game whose story is reportedly "fairly subtle" and told "mostly implicitly." I hope none of that prevents these folks from stretching out their acting legs. Especially Ashley Johnson, whose performance in The Last of Us is a stunning contribution to a heart-wrenching game.
The Witness hits Windows and PlayStation 4 in less than two weeks, January 26.
As the January 26 launch date for The Witness approaches, creator Jonathan Blow today revealed the talented and notable voice cast for his game. In a blog post on the game's official site, he not only reveals the cast but also tidbits about how the story works, how these voices will show themselves as players explore the island and the recording process itself.
The cast includes Ashley Johnson, who voiced Ellie in The Last of Us, and Phil LaMarr, who you may remember from Pulp Fiction (hint hint, he's the reason for The Wolf). Head on over to The Witness' blog right now to see the cast and get some final details as the game nears launch just under 2 weeks from now.
