The curtain has fallen on a significant chapter in the Kingdom Come: Deliverance saga. After years of dedication, Tom McKay and Luke Dale, the voices behind Henry and Hans respectively, have concluded their work at Warhorse Studios. Their departure was a poignant occasion, brimming with appreciation, fond memories, and a sense of closure.
However, even as they delivered their final lines, the studio was already in motion. Simultaneously with the actors' farewell, Warhorse Studios initiated auditions for new talent to assume the roles of Henry and Hans. The juxtaposition—a farewell for one generation, the dawn of another—was not lost on anyone.
McKay, renowned for his portrayal of the game's protagonist, eloquently described the unique bond forged during the project:
“In the creative industry, the term ‘family’ is often used loosely, but in this instance, it truly resonated. The relationships I formed during this journey are among the deepest and most enduring of my career.”
This familial connection mirrored a central theme within the game itself. Henry's devastating loss of his parents served as a cornerstone of his narrative, much like McKay's personal experience with the loss of his father imbued certain scenes with profound emotional weight. For McKay, Kingdom Come: Deliverance transcended a mere project; it became a deeply personal and impactful experience.
