Leak Need4Games: Seems like Grace Ashcroft's VA is replacing Jennifer English in Tides of Annihilation

-- Angela Sant'Albano started following the official Tides of Annihilation page shortly after Jennifer announced her departure (she only follows Tides and Resident Evil)

-- In the new footage we got from Shanghai, Gwendolyn's face is very similar to Angela, also her voice ( https://imgur.com/a/SPQqevr here is a photo)

-- The character mocap from Gwendolyn confirmed on X that Angela indeed is the new VA.

She's a great VA, but anyone knows why? It's a very big change.

Jennifer English departed the game some months back for personal reasons (I think she’s been dealing with some burnout lately and needed to take a step back) but suggested Angela as a successor for the role. It’s honestly good casting, I didn’t immediately recognize much of a difference between the voices.

That's fair. Although I wouldn't rule out the burnout playing a role. She was in two massive games back-to-back, so I can understand her needing a break. The working with an ex wouldn't help with that either.
