The Witcher: Geralt of Rivia before Henry Cavill, we know the voice actor Doug Cockle
Rude , glacial and solitary are just some of the adjectives that we could use to describe the monster hunter created by the CD Project RED and recently returned to the fore thanks to the transposition in live-action published by Netflix. Cockle managed to render these and many other facets of the character with his voice, merits that earned him the Best Gaming Performance at the 2015 Golden Joystick Awards.
Since 30 October 2007, the date on which the videogame for PC debuts in the United States, Cockle masterfully double the Witcher contributing to the success of the title. In just four months, The Witcher reached 600,000 copies sold worldwide and rose to one million in just a year: these were the stellar numbers that convinced Sony and Microsoft to develop a console version, despite the fact that the project was subsequently wrecked.
The eternal opponents decided to directly produce the equally successful sequels The Witcher 2 Assassins of Kings, published only for Xbox 360, and The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, distributed for PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. Cockle was not satisfied with the set and in fact he aimed to the full house, to use green carpet terms, and he also voiced Geralt in Soulcalibur VI and Monster Hunter: World. Jack McReady in Dead Nation, Victor Vran in the GDR of the same name and some minor characters in Driver San Francisco and Horizon Zero Dawn are among the other characters who owe his voice.
Cockle starred in the first person also in Captain America: The first Avenger and in the miniseries Band of Brothers: Brothers to the front , written by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks . In the meantime, the works for the adaptation of Netflix will continue and the hub of The Witcher 2 will be the father-son relationship between Geralt and Vesemir , as the developers of The Witcher have recently announced their new RPG Werewolf The Apocalypse Heart of the Forest .
