Watch Dogs Legion is a London-set open-world action game about a group of hackers fighting against oppressive government surveillance in the near future. An unusual gameplay mechanic allows you to control virtually any NPC in the game, which means there are dozens of different characters to meet, all voiced by a talented cast of voice actors. Here we’ll be listing Watch Dogs Legion’s voice cast’s most notable actors and providing a brief overview of their resumes.
Warren Brown – Dalton Wolfe
Warren Brown is one of Watch Dogs Legion’s most experienced actors, with a storied career that spans television, film, and video games. He is best known for portraying DS Justin Ripley in Luther, Sgt. Thomas ‘Mac’ McAllister in Strike Back, and Tom Bailey in Liar. Notably, he’s also a a former 2 x World Thai Boxing Champion and certainly one of Watch Dogs Legion’s voice cast standouts.
Esh Alladi – Richard Malik
Watch Dogs Legion is actor Esh Alladi’s first video game credit in a relatively short career thus far. His first professional credit is playing Dr. Mehta in the TV series Frankie, and he’s since featured in British dramas like East Enders and Casualty.
Noam Jenkins – Aiden Pearce
Aiden Pearce is a character you probably didn’t expect to see in a Watch Dogs game again given the mixed fortunes of the original game’s critical reception, as well as a the popular perception that he was a rather boring protagonist. But there is definitely something cool about Pearce, and we’re happy to hear Noam Jenkin’s portrayal of the character once again. Jenkins
Pascal Langdale – Bagley
Pascal Langdale is a British actor who has played a number of notable supporting roles in various television series, including Jelco in Killjoys, and Karl Marsten in Bitten.

Olivia Morgan – Sabine Brandt
British actress Olivia Morgan is best known for UK television roles like Jenny in The Dartmoor Killings, and films like Murmur in which she played Corette. Morgan’s other video game credits include Mary Read in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.

His most notable live-action role was playing The Punisher in The Punisher: No Mercy.
Stormzy – Stormzy
If you’re up to speed with the UK music scene then Stormzy should need no introduction. The Grime rapper plays himself in a questline that revolves around his music. It’s his first appearance in a video game, though not his first acting gig. Stormzy appeared in Noel Clark’s film, Brotherhood.
