Psychological horror game Dead Take will feature Baldur’s Gate III‘s Neil Newbone and Final Fantasy XVI‘s Ben Starr in the lead voice acting roles, Pocketpair Publishing and developer Surgent Studios announced.
“As actors in games and beyond, Neil, Ben, and I have leaned on each other through some extremely grueling times,” said Dead Take director Abubakar Salim in a press release. “In those moments, we exchanged some of the horror stories that built the foundations of this game. Not only do they bring considerable talent to the project, but they also helped create a space in which we could all be truly raw and honest. I can”t wait for you to see the calibre of their performances in Dead Take.”
Here is a brief overview of the game, via Pocketpair Publishing:
Set in a luxurious yet secluded Hollywood Hills mansion, Dead Take casts players as an actor searching for his friend gone missing after a lavish Hollywood party. As they navigate escape-room-style puzzles and splice together videos they find along the way, players will uncover the darkest secrets behind the entertainment industry’s glittering facade.
Dead Take will launch for PC via Steam in 2025.
