Wargroove developer Chucklefish has issued an apology after receiving criticism for whitewashing its cast of characters from the strategy military sim. The developer says that it will aim to do better in the future.
In November, Wargroove revealed the voice cast for its upcoming DLC pack ‘Double Trouble.’ There will be four new commanding officers in the DLC, three of whom are people of color. However, the three characters in question are all voiced by white voice actors.
Although the announcement was made nearly a month ago, the issue only really came to a head in the last 24 hours. Now, Chucklefish issued a statement on Twitter that explained how the situation around the casting came about, and a promise to do better in the future.
