Ryu/Kage’s voice actor, Kyle Hebert, talks about the path from DJing to Video Game voice acting on Mekel Kasanova Podcast
There’s a good chance if you’ve played a video game or watched an anime — that should be all of you, theoretically — you’ve likely run into the voice acting work of Kyle Hebert.

Street Fighter V Kage Day One Roundup — Tiger Knee Tatsu Crossup, VT1 cancels, Kazunoko’s Kage,and more!
Ryu has given in to the Satsui no Hadou, giving him the ability to anime air-dash and wear LED horns. It also gave him a name change — He’s Kage, now — and a new character slot in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition!
