Today, Spanish players received patch 11.0.7, and to their surprise, the new cinematic was only available in English. In the past, there were instances where cinematics had no audio at all due to bugs, but this situation is different. This time, the cinematic was released directly with the original English voices, though the subtitles were translated into Spanish.
While watching AlterTime’s stream, the biggest Spanish WoW channel and fansite, he mentioned that the issue stems from Microsoft not reaching an agreement with voice actors regarding AI usage. As a result, we now have an expansion with a mix of Spanish and English voiceovers.
This isn’t entirely new, though. The Spanish Hearthstone team was previously disbanded, and now Hearthstone features some lines in Latin American Spanish or even lacks voice acting altogether.
While this is currently affecting Spanish players, there’s no guarantee that other non-English languages won’t face similar issues in the future, perhaps starting with Midnight and beyond.
