A chapter in the history of Kingdom Come: Deliverance has gracefully concluded. After years of dedicating their voices and souls to this beloved RPG, Tom McKay and Luke Dale have stepped away from the microphone for the final time at Warhorse Studios. Their farewell was a poignant moment of reflection, filled with gratitude, nostalgia, and an undeniable sense of closure.

Yet, as they recorded their last lines, the wheels of change were already in motion. Warhorse Studios was actively auditioning new talent to fill the roles of Henry and Hans, marking a bittersweet transition. The irony of bidding farewell to one generation while welcoming another was not lost on the departing actors.

Tom McKay, renowned for his portrayal of Henry, spoke candidly about the unique sense of family that had formed around the project:

“In the creative world, people often call their teams a ‘family,’ but rarely does it hold true. Here, however, it was different. The connections I made on this journey are some of the deepest and longest-lasting of my career.”

The theme of family was not only a cornerstone of their personal journey but also a central motif within the game itself. Henry’s tragic loss of his parents propelled his narrative forward, resonating deeply with McKay, who drew upon his own experience of losing his father to bring authenticity and emotion to certain scenes. For him, Kingdom Come: Deliverance transcended being merely a project; it became a profoundly personal experience.
