Rest easy: ex-Faith No More singerMike Pattonwill be reprising his role as “The Darkness” is 2K’s upcomingThe Darkness II. Word comes fromCaca Volante, an online resource for Faith No More and Mr. Bungle information that has actually been around since the first web browser was released. Seriously,
Patton, a longtime gamer himself, and has lent his voice to a number of titles, including solid work on Valve’sLeft 4 DeadandPortal. He took an unfortunate voice acting turn with Capcom’sBionic Commandoin 2009, growling profanities instead of delivering any meaningful lines.
However, his work on 2007’sThe Darknesswas a standout, taunting the game’s lead Jackie Estacado at every turn.The Darkness IIis scheduled for release later this year; we’ll be seeing the game soon, and will have more details in the coming weeks.
