Bungie says it's 'actively re-recording' some voice lines for Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate after fans notice one of the game's best-known heroes suddenly sounds like one of its most notorious villains

Ikora Rey.

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate is out today and, while there are a few "emergent issues" on Bungie's radar, so far it seems to be going pretty well, which is nice. Some players were surprised by one seeming change, though: The voice of Ikora Rey, the Warlock Vanguard, seemed a little off. There's a reason for that, as it turns out, and it'll be changed back soon enough anyway.

Bungie explained today that the whole thing tracks back to a May update, in which the studio said that "some voice talent has been unavailable for recordings" for upcoming Destiny 2 releases. "For the time being, to ensure a consistent player journey as we launch Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate, certain characters will have different voices in Rite of the Nine or The Edge of Fate content," including—for English voiceovers—the characters Orin, Chioma, and Ikora.
