English informed Eclipse Glow Games that she would not be able to continue in the role in early June.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile we were, of course, saddened by her decision, we completely understood and respected Jennfier in prioritizing her well-being. We are also deeply grateful for the care and responsibility she showed throughout this process,\u201d the studio wrote.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring this transition, Jennifer remained incredibly supportive and, together with other members of our voice cast, helped us identify and connect with talented performers who could carry Gwendolyn forward while staying true to the character.\u201d<\/p>\n
Luckily, a new voice for Gwendolyn has been found, with English and other members of the game\u2019s cast recommending this as-yet unannounced actor. Eclipse Glow Games says her recent work in the industry \u201cleft a strong impression on both Jennifer and our team\u2014not only for the performance itself, but for the remarkable care and dedication she showed in understanding the character.\u201d<\/p>\n
We have some sad news to share, that Jennifer English will be stepping away from her role as the English voice of Gwendolyn, the main protagonist in Tides of Annihilation due to personal health reasons. She will continue to support the project in an advisory role. <\/p>\n
