Side hired for Witcher 2 work

London production house Side has revealed its involvement on the Witcher 2 project.

Side cast and recorded 40 actors delivering over 20,000 lines of dialogue for the second instalment in the RPG saga.

“You’re not going to hear any big name actors when playing the English version of The Witcher 2,” said the game’s senior writer Borys Pugacz-Muraszkiewicz.

“You will, however, hear a broad range of convincing characterisations and accents, natural, believable, emotionally committed performances adorned with just the right amount of flair and panache. And that we owe to the roster of talent Side placed at our disposal.”

Work on Witcher 2 adds to a long string of projects Side has been involved in, from Brink to LittleBigPlanet.
