Shuhei Yoshida’s New Venture
Shuhei Yoshida, a distinguished figure in the gaming world with over thirty years at PlayStation, is embarking on an exciting new chapter.
He is set to make his voice acting debut in an upcoming video game, a move that has fans buzzing with anticipation.
In this novel role, Yoshida voices MonouGe, a lively green mascot that sports a bird-like appearance and exudes an infectious enthusiasm for gaming.
This character will be part of the upcoming release, ‘Promise Mascot Agency’, crafted by Kaizen Game Works—the team behind the critically acclaimed title ‘Paradise Killer’.
A Star-Studded Cast
Yoshida won’t be alone in this venture; he’ll be joined by a star-studded voice cast.
This includes Takaya Kuroda, famed for his iconic portrayal of Kazuma Kiryu in the Yakuza series, and Ayano Shibuya, who recently lent her voice to Purah in ‘Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’.
Even Swery, the mastermind behind ‘Deadly Premonition’, will contribute his talent to the project, adding to the game’s allure.
The Unique Gaming Experience
Scheduled for release later this year, ‘Promise Mascot Agency’ is set to offer an unparalleled gaming experience.
Described by its creators as the first open-world mascot management crime drama, the game follows a disgraced ex-yakuza who, after being expelled to a cursed town, finds himself at the helm of a struggling mascot agency.
It promises a captivating narrative filled with humor and intrigue.
With Yoshida’s voice bringing MonouGe to life, this game is sure to be a distinctive addition to the gaming landscape.
Fans are eagerly awaiting what this dynamic combination of storytelling and character will bring.
