CD Projekt Red will use artificial intelligence to adjust Geralt’s new lines in the Polish version of The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past. According to reporting by Game File, actor Jacek Rozenek authorized the measure. The studio hopes to bring the current recordings closer to the voice he gave the character in the original game and its previous expansions.Rozenek suffered a stroke in 2019 and had to undergo speech rehabilitation. He returned to voice Geralt in a quest included in The Witcher 3’s next-gen update, released in 2022, but the recording left him exhausted. During a meeting with the actor, CD Projekt Red found that his voice had become deeper and raspier—a change linked to the stroke and the passage of time.Rather than replace Rozenek, the studio turned to Ukrainian company Respeecher to modify the lines he recorded for Songs of the Past. According to the actor, the goal is for the result to sound as close as possible to his voice from 12 years ago.CD Projekt Red had previously worked with Respeecher on the Polish version of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty. In that case, another actor recorded Viktor Vektor’s new lines, and the technology was used to make them resemble the voice of Miłogost Reczek, the character’s original voice actor, who died in 2021. The studio said it had obtained authorization from Reczek’s family.For Mikołaj Szwed, CD Projekt Red’s localization producer, Rozenek’s case is a specific situation in which the technology can be used with consent. The same treatment is not planned for Doug Cockle’s English lines in the expansion, nor for any potential recordings by Rozenek in future Witcher games.With information from Rock Paper Shotgun.
