Darkest Dungeon Devs Refuse to AI-Copy Late Narrator Wayne June
Red Hook Studios says it would never train an AI to imitate Wayne June’s voice, despite fan speculation. Director Chris Bourassa notes June had staunchly opposed AI usage and, in a late email, hinted at a possible way forward, but the team declined the idea and donated to June’s family. June’s distinctive narration remains a hallmark of Darkest Dungeon 2 and is treated as a human performance rather than something a machine should replicate.
