Respeecher helped 'Cyberpunk 2077' honour a dead actor’s voice
Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red has confirmed that it reconstructed the voice of a deceased actor for its Phantom Liberty DLC using AI voice cloning software. Actor Miłogost Reczek voiced the character Viktor Vektor in the Polish version of the game. He would've been tapped to reprise the role for the DLC (which came out last month), but he died in 2021 before its production. The developer chose to go this route to "pay tribute to his wonderful performance," they told Bloomberg. And the developer said they obtained consent to do so from his family.
