Playtonic Friends is now excited to reveal the cast of NPCs for their latest game Elsie. Playtonic Friends, a renowned publisher, has recently announced the talented voice actors for their upcoming game “The Guardians and Heroes”, now adding Elsie on to their impressive roster.
Developed by Knight Shift Games, Elsie is an action-packed rogue-like action platformer set in a neo-retro world. This highly anticipated game is filled with procedurally generated levels and an army of deadly robots, creating a unique and adrenaline-pumping experience for players.
