KARMA: The Dark World may not have the biggest names in the industry, but these voice actors sure did leave their mark.
While KARMA: The Dark World’s inspirations are clear, its voice actors did an excellent job immersing me within its complex narrative and worldbuilding. I felt like I’d been transported back to when I first played a horror by Frictional Games (e.g., Amnesia, Penumbra, or Black Plague). KARMA had a polish from its voice acting that strengthened its dark yet beautiful setting, making it memorable not only for its story. Indie horror often needs great voice acting to truly bring the characters to life, and KARMA did just that.
If you want to know who’s behind the quintessential British accents or if you experienced KARMA as Chinese developer, POLLAR STUDIO perhaps wanted you to, then here are all voice actors in KARMA: The Dark World and what they’re best known for.
