Sony turned down Troy Baker for a voice acting role in the PlayStation 4’s The Order: 1886.
At an E3 2019 Coliseum panel, Ready at Dawn CEO Ru Weerasuriya brought up the subject. The panel was discussing the studio’s new VR game, Lone Echo 2, when Weerasuriya mentioned that Baker was “originally the very first voice for Galahad… when we did the test, actually,” for the game The Order: 1886. According to Baker, Sony’s reasoning was that he was already in “too many games,” including being Joel in the Last of Us and Delsin Rowe in InFamous: Second Son, which are also Sony first-party exclusives.

Steve West eventually was chosen to voice Sir Galahad in The Order: 1886, which Baker commented as “a much better call.” While The Order: 1886 did not receive stellar reviews, some people believed that the game was judged too harshly.

The opening movie for Bandai Namco’s survival strategy game, Digimon Survive, has been released.
The opening was first shown exclusively at the “Future of Digimon” panel at Anime Expo 2019 back on July 6. The opening shows an earthquake that has hit Kanobe City, as well as some ominous red eyes (presumably Digimon) surrounding an old man in a forest. Near the end, the main character, Takuma, sees a mysterious silhouette of a girl, and the opening finishes with her singing.
Digimon Survive follows Takuma and his companion, Agumon, as they make decisions to stay alive and escape a bizarre dimension.
Digimon Survive will release on PC, PlayStation 4, Switch, and Xbox One in 2020.
