Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Vincent Valentine actor Matthew Mercer has revealed the role was sprung on him as a last-minute surprise because Square Enix knew how much he wanted the part.
Actors from Starfield and Baldur's Gate 3 have said their games "easily" have better writing than some television shows and films they've worked on.
Koji Kondo joined Nintendo in 1984 and ended up composing basically every memorable theme from the Mario or Zelda series. The legendary composer had a particularly wild idea for a stage effect in last year's Super Mario Bros Wonder, and while that idea was rejected, it did end up giving Kondo the opportunity to bring his voice to the game.
TimeSplitters Rewind — the fan-made recreation of TimeSplitters 1, 2 and 3's multiplayer, which has been in development since 2013 — has reemerged with its first update video in over the year, offering a fresh look at the project and an urgent call for assistance as its developers find themselves in an «incredibly challenging space» due to the current state of the industry.

The voice actor who plays Yuffie in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is so good at fake vomiting that during her recording sessions, the team had to tell her to "tone it down."
In Baldur's Gate 3, the real game is the friends you make along the way. I mean, there is the whole brainworms thing, but really you're just there to spend more time with its merry band of charming wackadoos. Apparently, that cast list was once even longer, as Swen Vincke revealed at this year's GDC that Ketheric Thorm—BG3's Act Two big bad—was once going to be a potential party member. Spoilers ahead for BG3's second act onwards.
