Xenoblade Chronicles was famous at the time of release for utilising the vocal talents of British voice actors, which gave the game a pretty unique sound – most RPGs tend to showcase an American cast when they're localised for the west.
At the time of the game's release, Coleman had a recurring role in the British TV soap Emmerdale and had just secured a part in the Marvel movie Captain America: The First Avenger.
She won widespread critical acclaim for her performance, and her star arguably has never been higher – which is what makes her return to Xenoblade Chronicles all the more surprising?
Princess Melia is featured in Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition's Future Connected epilogue, which offers around 10-20 hours of additional gameplay.
We gave the game 9/10 in our review, stating: "Even if you wouldn’t consider yourself a fan, we would still strongly encourage you to think about adding this one to your collection, as this is the standard against which most RPGs should be judged.".
Rumours that he turned down a role in The Hobbit to work on Nintendo Life are, to the best of our knowledge, completely and utterly unfounded.
knowing absolutely nothing about the actress, I was trying to connect where the hell the thumbnail was in Xenoblade Chronicles DE!
But I am quite glad she reprises her role.
I'd like to believe that some day, playing a role like this in a game wont be seen as stepping down or whatever.
Like, this article is proof that people, some people at least, think that voicing a role in a game is somehow less than acting on TV or in a movie?
@tourjeff looks like it might be shortly after launch..!
Might have been news worthy if you had an interview with her about her role, even reposted from somewhere else.
Instead it looks like the work experience lad has stumbled across something on IMDB on his lunch break.
@Kineas no, the game comes out tomorrow and fans have wondered if she would reprise her role considering the trajectory of her career since the original release which has now been confirmed!
@mazzel Shopto are great for getting your game a day early.
@mariomaster96 I think the article is just an excuse for them to repost their bogus recommendation of the game
And it's even the collectors edition
You guys make it sound like this voice acting for the game is beneath her
They offered her the role again and she took it
