Still Wakes the Deep unveils its voice talent
Alec Newman and Neve McIntosh lead a stellar cast
Brighton, UK – 21 May 2024: Award-winning developer The Chinese Room and publisher Secret Mode have revealed the voice talent that will be bringing to life their upcoming narrative horror game, Still Wakes the Deep, in a new behind the scenes mini documentary.
Leading the cast as main character Cameron "Caz" McLeary is Alec Newman, an accomplished Glaswegian actor with a long history of video game performances. Cyberpunk 2077 fans may recognise him as the voice behind Adam Smasher in both the game and anime.
"The thing was so well written, and so well-conceived, that I don't recall having very long conversations about what Caz should sound like," says Newman in the mini documentary, discussing what struck him about Still Wakes the Deep. "With this, you can feel the writing, you can feel the characters."
Also joining the cast is Neve McIntosh as Suze, Caz's wife, who can be heard in the Still Wakes the Deep release date trailer. You can find the full cast list below:
- Alec Newman as Caz
- Neve McIntosh as Suze
- Karen Dunbar
- Michael Abubakar
- Clive Russell
- Shaun Dooley
- Stewart Scudamore

The voice cast was directed by Kate Saxon and Damian Goodwin. The mini documentary was recorded at SIDE Studios in London, and at The Chinese Room's Brighton studio.
Still Wakes the Deep will launch on 18 June 2024 for Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation®5 (PS5™). It will also be available with Game Pass for console and PC. Pre-orders for the physical PS5 release are available now from all good retailers.
About Still Wakes the Deep
Still Wakes the Deep is a return to the first-person narrative horror genre from The Chinese Room, creator of critically acclaimed games such as Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, Dear Esther, and the highly-anticipated Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2.
In Still Wakes the Deep, the player assumes the role of an off-shore oil rig worker, fighting for his life through a vicious storm, perilous surroundings, and the dark, freezing North Sea waters. All lines of communication have been severed. All exits are gone. All that remains is to face the unknowable horror that’s come aboard.
