Just a couple of days ago, the voice recordings for the upcoming Jane Jensen adventure game Gray Matter were completed. Jane Jensen herself supervised all of the English voice recordings, which were directed by Lorelei King, one of the most successful and accomplished American actresses working in the UK today. She appeared in numerous films from Hollywood blockbusters such as 'Notting Hill' and 'The Saint,' to British independent films and TV shows.
Publisher dtp entertainment managed to gather a number of popular voice talents for Gray Matter: For example, Sam Everett, the game’s female main character, is performed by actress Philippa Alexander. Dr. David Styles, the game’s main male character is played by Steven Pacey, known from British movies and TV such as “Heartbeat”, “M.I.T” and “Pie in the Sky”. Furthermore, the cast also includes well known British actors and voice actors like Adrienne Poster, Rupert Degas and Sacha Dahwan.
Gray Matter will be the first new title by the famous adventure author since the release of Gabriel Knight 3. Staying true to the Jensen-style, the story interweaves gruesome incidences and supernatural events.
Neurobiologist Dr. David Styles is one of the main characters in the game. Ever since losing his wife in a terrible car accident many years ago, he has become a recluse, leaving his English mansion Dread Hill House only on rare occasions.
One day student and street artist Samantha Everett shows up on his door step unexpectedly, at a time Styles just happens to be looking for a new assistant. Sam gets the job. Originally from America, she has been travelling Europe for the last few years, so she could really use the money. Her first assignment involves finding six volunteers for an experiment planned by Dr. Styles at Oxford University.
The experiment begins harmless enough, but soon strange things start happening. Styles is visited by his beloved, but deceased wife. Now it is up to Sam to solve the mysteries of Dread Hill House.
In Gray Matter, the player takes control of Dr. David Styles as well as Samantha Everett as they are trying to unveil secrets and find the truth.
dtp entertainment will release Gray Matter worldwide in March 2010.

Excellent news. There was sooooo little news about this game that I was beginning to fear it would get delayed again.

Carla,
This game sounds really good and Jane Jensen is terrific. Is there a trailer out for it? I am not familiar with the actors that you mentioned but Lorelei King is an audiobook narrator. I have listened to many of her readings. She has done the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evanovich, among others. I didn't know that she is also an actress.
Thansk for the info. Hope screenshots and a trailer are available. Sounds like a winner! Here's the last trailer released: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCaUEs3OfgQ

gatsbygirl, the link that was posted by Tomer and Guybrush was the latest we got, the game was "presented" at the Gamecom last august. As far as the actors are concerned, they are all working in UK (even Lorelei King used to have a radio show here) so I guess the accents of the game will be very british!
