Chronicles: Medieval replaces Tom Hardy with Lars Mikkelsen in final game
Raw Power Games confirmed that Chronicles: Medieval will feature voice work from Lars Mikkelsen instead of the originally advertised Tom Hardy.
Marketing campaign misled players about cast
Press releases and trailers for the title prominently featured the BAFTA-winning actor. Developers admitted that Tom Hardy appeared only in promotional material rather than the final product. Sam Millen, lead producer at Raw Power Games, stated that the actor was not part of the game.
Lars Mikkelsen takes chronicler role
The production team secured Lars Mikkelsen to perform voiceovers during character creation and specific gameplay segments. This substitution occurred after ten emails and two press releases highlighted the incorrect casting information. The developer described the situation as a misleading tactic to attract attention before the show.
Game features real-time strategy combat
Chronicles: Medieval offers massive strategic top-down battles blended with third-person combat mechanics. The title was revealed during Summer Games Fest by its Danish developers. Players can engage in diplomacy and combat within a historical epic setting.
