Samantha Béart has, rightfully, gotten plenty of flowers over the last couple of years for voicing Karlach in Baldur's Gate 3. But their work stretches well beyond the Forgotten Realms too, and as they recount all the projects they have coming out at the moment, they implore players to dive further into the world of indie video games. During an interview at the Golden Joysticks with Radio Times, Béart was asked to reveal some of the projects she's worked on since Baldur's Gate 3. "Currently seven games under NDA, but we also have Loco Motive, Cabernet, Mike Bithell's Tron: Catalyst," they list. "Absolum – which people have played, thank you for playing! And Fading Echo, which has been out in alpha playtest for a while." In summary, Béart has been busy with "quite a few" games since Baldur's Gate 3, she says. And "please play the indie games, please," she reminds the camera. Sound advice in general, regardless of whether Béart's involvement helps entice you. Baldur's Gate 3 Karlach actor says cast members are still underrated by video game developers, who see them "as outsources for a lot of the time": "There's a weird disconnect" Baldur's Gate 3 and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 star Jennifer English on her real-life partner being an antagonist in her upcoming project: "Just reflecting real life, really" Baldur's Gate 3 actor reveals Shadowheart's pal Nocturne was more of a "sexy demon" until she "found Nocturne on the spot" in a "girl next door" vibe Independent games are a hotbed for some of the greatest creativity and most ambitious storytelling across the whole industry. If you're in any way tired of the triple-A archetypes, you'll find plenty of weirder, wilder ideas in the indie sphere, and often for a fraction of the price with much less of a commitment time-wise. "Two are triple-A, and the rest are indies," Béart responds when pressed to reveal more about their NDA'd games. "Play the indies, too." We should expect to see many of these in spring 2026, the actor says, since so many developers rearranged their releases to avoid clashing with the all-consuming GTA 6 later in the year. "You're going to be sick of me, and I'm sorry," Béart adds. "Some of these I've been sitting on for up to two years, some are a couple of months. Why am I apologizing? Screw you, play the games." Why indeed. Keep your eyes and ears open over the next six months or so.
