The new Armored Core 6 trailer features short clips of gameplay footage mixed with a monologue from Urban, who tells the viewer—and soon-to-be mech pilot—to “be ruthless, be swift, and do whatever it takes to get the job done.”

With AC6’s striking release-day trailer surprising fans with such a famous face, many are wondering whether Karl Urban will make an appearance in the game itself. We have the answers right here.

Does Karl Urban voice a character in Armored Core 6?

Unfortunately, Karl Urban does not make an appearance in Armored Core 6. Fans were hoping he might make a surprise appearance as a character, like how British comedian Peter Serafinowicz voiced Mild-Mannered Pate in Dark Souls 2—but sadly, that isn’t the case here.

Although Urban doesn’t voice a character in AC6, the game still has a stellar voice cast that, for the most part, provides well-acted and entertaining dialogue to keep the story moving at a good pace. AC6 has plenty of content to get through, with five chapters and new missions appearing in NG+ and NG++ modes, so there will undoubtedly be more characters and dialogue for fans to discover.
