The Oscar-winning actor promoted Undawn before its June 2023 launch, but it still 'flopped spectacularly'

Lmfao the trailer doesn’t even include any dialogue from Will Smith’s character?! Imagine paying (I assume) millions of dollars to get an A-list Hollywood celebrity in your game and you don’t even show them in your trailer!

I watched a dunkey video for it, i dont think there is any dialogue from will smiths character. Like they didnt bother to record it. There was one or two instances where he spoke, and it wasn’t will smith.

Wait, so they just licensed Will Smith’s likeness?

They couldn’t have just done a character that looks sort of like Will Smith?

He does sort of look like Will Smith.

He looks like a Chinese Will Smith.

That’s what I thought it happened when I saw the dunkey video.

What would be cringingly terrible, but entirely possible, is if Will DID record lines for his character, but content pipeline faults/laziness or programming errors mean it doesn’t play ingame.

I even feel like that same circumstance has happened before…
