List of ''[[Deadlock]]'s'' known voice cast.

== Reliability ==
A voice actor is only considered confirmed through a '''reliable source''', which can be either developer [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]] in the [https://discord.com/channels/1231286446472691825/1231613274643238923 official Discord]<ref>2024-07-03 - [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; [https://discord.com/channels/1231286446472691825 Deadlock Discord] - "''we're not posting the cast list yet, since things are in flux, but I recorded the VO so I'm pretty confident"''</ref> or an actor's social media or personal website. [https://www.imdb.com/ IMDb] alone is ''not'' considered a reliable source, as credits are user-submitted and thus may be incorrect.<ref>2025-04-29 - [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; [https://discord.com/channels/1231286446472691825 Deadlock Discord] - ''"credits on IMDB can be wrong because actors aren't always the ones that submit them - i've worked on games in the past where people who absolutely weren't the perfomer were listed as the talent and it took the actor who actually played the role a long time to get it corrected"''</ref><ref>[[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Citing_IMDb|Wikipedia's policy on citing IMDb]]</ref>

The final voice cast will only be available upon ''Deadlock's'' official release, and actors may be recast during development, even if they were already identified or confirmed.<ref>2024-08-01 - [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; [https://discord.com/channels/1231286446472691825 Deadlock Discord] - "''we're not quite ready to announce the actors yet since so much on heroes can change. Once we feel like a heroes visuals and voice are locked down we'll confirm who's playing them"''</ref><ref>2025-03-27 - [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; [https://discord.com/channels/1231286446472691825 Deadlock Discord] - ''"it is possible that even voices that have currently been identified could change in the future (...) it's totally possible that things that today I think are on firm footing might shift as we learn things"''</ref>

== Trivia ==

* Various ''Deadlock'' voice actors have played roles in previous Valve games, most notably John Patrick Lowrie, who voiced [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Sniper Sniper] in ''Team Fortress 2,'' [https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Voice_Actors#John_Patrick_Lowrie Pudge and other heroes] in ''Dota 2,'' and [https://combineoverwiki.net/wiki/Odessa_Cubbage Odessa Cubbage] in ''Half-Life 2.''
* Various ''Deadlock'' voice actors have played roles in the [[wikipedia:Saints_Row|''Saints Row'']] series, which writer [[Steve Jaros]] has previously worked on.
* The Hidden King announcer's voice actor was recast with the new model in the [[Old Gods, New Blood]] update. The current voice is speculated to be either Clancy Brown (Mr. Krabs in ''Spongebob Squarepants'') or Darin De Paul (Reinhardt in ''Overwatch''). Developer [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]] has so far chosen not to reveal the name of either the current or previous voice actor to not "spoil the fun".<ref>2026-01-26 - ''@nookem'' and [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; Deadlock Discord - nookem: ''"kaori before you go can you answer if The Hidden King is darin de paul?"'' Kaori: ''"i mean i could, but why spoil the fun?"''</ref> They have also said that the previous Amber Hand actor can still be heard in the game in a different role.<ref>2026-01-23 - [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; Deadlock Discord - ''"The actor who played the voice of the OG amber hand is still heard in the game"''</ref>
* {{HeroIcon|Lash}} calls {{HeroIcon|Drifter}} a "[[wikt:murderhobo|murder hobo]]",<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Lash|hero2=Drifter|number=1|hero_quote1=Lash|quote1=So, what are you supposed to be, some kind of murder hobo?}}</ref> a term commonly used to describe RPG players who kill NPCs indiscriminately. Drifter's voice actor Matt Mercer is well-known as the Dungeon Master of the ''[[wikipedia:Dungeons_&_Dragons|Dungeons & Dragons]]'' webseries [[wikipedia:Critical_Role|''Critical Role'']].
* {{HeroIcon|Yamato}} was recast in the [[Update:October 10, 2024|2024-10-10 Update]] because her original voice actress was not a native Japanese speaker.
* {{HeroIcon|Venator}} originally had the [[Shopkeeper]] voice actor as a [[Generic Male/Voice lines|temp VO]], who made self-aware jokes about his role. The [[Generic Female/Voice lines|female temp voice]] (currently on [[Boho]]) called him "the bodega guy".<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Boho|file=Temp female select 01.mp3|transcription=If you thought the bodega guy was a good temp voice, wait 'til you hear me.|no_pageref_file=true}}</ref>
* The [[Generic Female/Voice lines|Generic Female]] temp character has a voice line joking that they're "not Matt Mercer", referencing common fan speculation that various characters were voiced by Matt Mercer (most notably {{HeroIcon|Mo & Krill|l1=Krill}}).<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Generic Female|alt_link=Generic Female/Voice lines|file=Temp_female_select_03.mp3|transcription=This character is not voiced by Matt Mercer. Probably. I mean, that guy is really talented. Hey, maybe I'm Matt Mercer!|no_pageref_file=true}}</ref>
