Who voices the Chinese (Mandarin) version?
S-GAME has not published a character-by-character Mandarin cast. The one sourced credit: producer Liang Qiwei's blog, relayed by Chinese media, says Donnie Yen recorded Mo Yuan's Mandarin lines and invited voice actor Chen Hao (陈浩) to help refine them. An older official Chinese voice trailer lists voice actors without saying who plays whom, so we don't assign them.
Why does Soul sound different from the trailers?
Jay Maksenuk voiced Soul in the reveal trailers and early previews. Shortly before the October 2026 launch, Roger Craig Smith was announced as Soul's English voice, and the launch build uses his performance.
