NintendoThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the latest and greatest installment in the franchise, and with voice acting back for the new release, here is our full list of main voice actors that appear in the game.
The Legend of Zelda is one of the oldest and most beloved video game franchises ever. After starting in the 1980s, the gaming series has spanned over four decades, with each game reinventing the franchise while also maintaining and developing a long roster of iconic gaming characters.

Impa: Andi Gibson

Tulin: Cristina Vee
