The gaming industry in 2025 is mixed - a Capcom masterpiece that was highly anticipated at the beginning of the year opened high and ended low despite its good sales, while Sandfall Studio debut "Light and Shadow: Expedition No. 33" unexpectedly became the most sought-after work in recent years.

The popularity of this game even exceeded the expectations of the development team and fans. The secret to its success is not only the unique world view setting, but also the all-star dubbing lineup composed of a group of Hollywood first-line actors and "Darkward" starring Charlie Cox.

At a recent comic exhibition, Cox, who plays the core character Gustav, revealed an unexpected behind-the-scenes story: "To be honest, I have never played this game, and I am not even a game player. At that time, the agent asked me if I wanted to make a voice call. I stayed in the recording studio for about four hours... Now everyone is congratulating me, which makes me feel like a liar. Of course, I am really happy for the production team, but..."

The frank response of this new "game superstar" reflects the mental journey of the entire team - from "an ordinary RPG trying to innovate" to being exclaimed by players, it completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
