Our friends at Bethesda has contacted us to let us know that gamers for "The Evil Within" are in for a real treat with the Voice Talent that they've obtained. Here's what they had to say:
"The Evil Within cast includes Academy Award nominee Jackie Earle Haley ("Lincoln," "Watchmen," “A Nightmare on Elm Street”), Screen Actors Guild Award nominee Jennifer Carpenter ("Dexter," “Quarantine,” “The Exorcism of Emily Rose”), and film and television star Anson Mount ("Hell on Wheels,” "Safe”).
The Evil Within,
out October 17th in Europe, embodies the meaning of pure survival
horror. Highly-crafted environments, horrifying anxiety, and an
intricate story are combined to create an immersive world that will
bring players to the height of tension. With limited resources at their
disposal, players will fight for survival and experience profound fear
in this perfect blend of horror and action.
Academy Award nominee Jackie Earle Haley, who is no stranger to horror, having recently played Freddy Krueger in the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, lends his voice to The Evil Within’s main antagonist, Ruvik. Making his video game debut, Anson Mount, best known for his role as Cullen Bohannon in AMC’s Hell on Wheels,
assumes the role of lead protagonist Sebastian Castellanos. Players
assume the role of Sebastian, a veteran police detective, throughout the
game in their terrifying struggle for survival.
Rounding off the cast is Jennifer Carpenter, well-known for her role as Debra Morgan in the hit Showtime series Dexter,
who plays Juli Kidman, Sebastian’s Junior Detective partner. As part of
recently announced Season Pass plans, players will be able to assume
the role of Juli Kidman in post-launch content to experience The Evil Within from an entirely new perspective.
"One
of the most crucial elements to any successful survival horror game is
the setting and sound, which includes the depth and authenticity of the
voice acting," said Mikami. "We brought together a great cast of
experienced actors to help ensure that players really believe our
characters’ emotions and the tension they feel in every scene."
In The Evil Within,
Detective Sebastian Castellanos and his partners are called in to
investigate a gruesome mass murder. After seeing the slaughter of fellow
officers, Sebastian is ambushed and knocked unconscious. When he
awakens, he finds himself in a deranged world where hideous creatures
wander among the dead. Facing unimaginable terror, and fighting for
survival, Sebastian embarks on a frightening journey to unravel what’s
behind this evil force.
Slated for release on October 16th in Australia and October 17th across Europe, The Evil Within
is in development for the Xbox One®, the all-in-one games and
entertainment system from Microsoft, Xbox 360, PlayStation® 4 computer
entertainment system, PlayStation 3, and PC. For more details on The Evil Within please visit the official site at http://theevilwithin.com/."
We hope you're looking forward to getting as scared as us,
Gareth and Lady Eleanor
