Blizzard Entertainment has surprisingly not announced any of their voice actor guests scheduled to appear at BlizzCon 2010 on October 22-23 in Anaheim, CA.
Thankfully, an inside source has provided Voice Actors in the News with an exclusive, complete list of Blizzard’s voiceover talents appearing at this annual gaming event:
– From Diablo 3:
Michael Gough, voice of Deckard Cain
– From Starcraft 2:
Robert Clotworthy, voice of Jim Raynor
James Harper, Acrturus Mengsk
Neil Kaplan, Tychus Findlay
Josh Keaton, Valerian Mengsk
Dave Fennoy, Gabriel Tosh
Ali Hillis, Ariel Hanson
Julianne Buescher, Adjutant
– From World of WarCraft:
Michael McConnohie, voice of the Lich King
Patrick Seitz, Arthas
Dino Andrade, Mekkatorque
Carlos Larkin, Brann Bronzebeard
Ed Trotta, Malfurion Stormrage
We’ve also been informed that an autograph session will take place Saturday from 1-2pm.
The official BlizzCon 2010 schedule does include a “Blizzard Sound” panel on Saturday at 4:30pm, but no panelists are mentioned by name. Here’s the panel description:
It’s all ears on Blizzard Entertainment sound and music! Join us for a discussion on how topnotch voice acting, dramatic orchestral scores, and striking sound effects are used to make Blizzard’s games even more epic.
Jay Mohr (who has voiced characters for video games and animated productions) is serving as Master of Ceremonies, and rockers Tenacious D (Jack Black and Kyle Gass) will also be performing for BlizzCon’s closing ceremonies.
We hope to provide photos, video and fan reports following the event.
