Kengo Tanashi as Link - Tears of the Kingdom voice actors

Kengo Tanashi plays our protagonist Link in both the English and Japanese versions. Zelda games always had the tradition of the protagonist being mute, and Tears of the Kingdom isn’t any different, with players only being able to hear Link’s grunts and growls. Kengo Tanashi reprises his role as Link, but he also has more talkative roles in other games such as Scarlet Nexus, Digimon Survive, and Wild Hearts.

Patricia Summerfelt as Princess Zelda
