Cygnus Cross has confirmed that Emberville will feature full voice acting, supported by a large ensemble of actors, creators, and performers. The announced cast includes voices recognizable from Baldur’s Gate 3, The Witcher 3, Final Fantasy XVI, Resident Evil, Overwatch, and other major games.
Many character names and role assignments remain unannounced. This guide therefore lists the performers confirmed by the studio without attempting to match them to characters that have not been officially identified.
Full Voice Acting Confirmed#
The Emberville Discord FAQ explicitly states that the game will feature full voice acting rather than partial voice acting. The studio has not yet explained how that coverage applies to optional dialogue, minor NPCs, player-character voices, or content added during Early Access.

Jane Perry Narrates the Release-Date Trailer#
Jane Perry provides the cinematic narration in Emberville’s release-date trailer. The trailer follows the player from their awakening in the Vitromotus through combat, exploration, crafting, rebuilding, and the growth of a personal estate.
That narration offers one of the clearest examples of the game’s intended dramatic tone, although it does not by itself confirm Perry’s in-game character.

Are the Character Roles Known?#
Most roles have not been publicly assigned. The official announcements emphasize the performers and the breadth of the ensemble rather than providing a character-by-character cast list.
We will update this page when Cygnus Cross confirms character names, role assignments, or additional performers.
