Exodus Is Using Matthew McConaughey's Real Voice, Not AI
"He has a completely separate deal of his own design that he's worked out with Elevenlabs, which happens to be one of the most prominent, AI voice-generation tools, that is being used by other video game companies. Such that people could leverage his voice in non-bespoke VO sessions in a different way. He has a bunch of really strict rules around how it could be used."
"So if we ask what our long-term studio stance [on AI] is, we want to be smart technologists, and we want to make great games. And if for cost reasons or quality reasons, that becomes something that becomes more acceptable and becomes more commonplace, I think we're gonna have to be smart and intelligent about how we adopt it ourselves. But currently we don't have plans."
Matthew McConaughey signed a licensing deal with ElevenLabs allowing the company to use his voice under tightly controlled terms. Archetype Entertainment obtained bespoke voice recordings from McConaughey specifically for the upcoming game Exodus. Archetype is not using generative AI in the game's current production pipeline and has no immediate plans to do so. The studio states it may consider AI in the future for cost or quality reasons if adoption becomes acceptable and is handled intelligently. Exodus casts players as The Traveler stealing technology from an alien race called the Celestials, and McConaughey voices a character named C.C. Orlev.
