Introducing the Voices of Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest

Every great story-driven experience needs a great cast, and Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest is no exception - especially with it being grounded in a specific time and place. We worked with our partners at Side to find the right people to bring Siren’s Rest to life. Ahead of the launch of our paid story expansion on June 18, here are the talented voice actors – alongside the characters they portray – once again directed by the magnificent Kate Saxon.

Lois Chimimba as Mhairi

Lois Chimimba is a Glaswegian actor and writer known for her roles in Vigil and The One, and has entered video game voice acting with a role in Atomfall. We’re honoured for Lois to voice Mhairi, our protagonist in Siren’s Rest.

Mhairi is the leader of the saturation diving expedition down to the Beira D. She’s spent years supporting the families of those lost in that disaster, a decade back. Now, after training and funding this dive, the pressure’s on. She doesn’t just want to find answers for the families of the fallen… She has her own personal motives as well.

Lorn Macdonald as Rob

Known for his roles in Bridgeton, Outlander, and Shetland, Lorn Macdonald is a BAFTA award-winning actor from Kirkcaldy, Scotland. He takes his first credited step into video games voicing Rob, Mhairi’s diving partner, in Still Wakes the Deep: Siren’s Rest.

A young, but experienced diver after years exploring shipwrecks in the Firth of Clyde, Rob scouts the perimeter of the Beira D’s wreckage and lays down guiding flares. He takes the role of the bellman: remaining in the diving bell and being on the radio with Mhairi as she navigates the twisted wreck. He’s ready to help if needed, as well as stopping her from doing anything reckless.

David Menkin as Hans

Experienced actor David Menkin voices the overseer of the dive, Hans, in Siren’s Rest. David is known for several roles across film, TV, and video games, such as Final Fantasy XVI and XIV, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, and Florence Foster Jenkins.

Hans is the “elder statesman” of the crew, supervising the dive from the surface. After a long career supporting working people in Norway and beyond, he is happy to help guide a dive that seeks to bring rest to the victims of such a tragedy. His job is to keep the dive organised and professional. No divers will be in danger on his watch… if they tell him the truth, that is.
