Tales from the Borderlands to feature Nerdist founder, Star Wars: The Clone Wars actor

Tales from the Borderlands, a Telltale title taking place in the Borderlands universe, will feature the vocal talents of Nerdist founder Chris Hardwick, actor Sam Witwer and more.

Witwer, who appeared in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Battlestar Galactica, is set to play a character named Rhys. Hardwick, meanwhile, will lend his voice to the role of Vaughn, Rhys' best friend. The two are Hyperion workers who begin searching the world of Pandora for a vault key.

Other actors for the game include Patrick Warburton, Nolan North and several returning characters from the Borderlands series.

Tales from the Borderlands was announced last December and is expected to launch as a downloadable series this summer. The game stars two greed-driven characters with questionable honesty.

Earlier this month, Telltale Games announced that loot grabbed in-game will be usable in other Borderlands titles.
