There have been rumors going around about the voice of Ganondorf in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but those rumors can now come to an end. Not surprisingly, fans were spot-on with their guesses as to who was getting the major role.

Confirmed via their personal Twitter, voice actor/Critical Role host Matt Mercer announced that he is indeed the person behind the role of Ganondorf. Their message some insight into their history with the Legend of Zelda series and just how excited they are to have the role. You can see the full message from Matt below.

I just got the go-ahead from Nintendo, so I can FINALLY announce my absolute pleasure to be voicing Ganondorf in the Legend of #Zelda : #TearsoftheKingdom. An immense honor that I have thrown myself into doing justice.

I have been an immense Legend of Zelda fan since I was a child, and Ganondorf has been one of my favorite antagonists… to the point where I portrayed this green-skinned menace for my webseries over a decade ago!

Many of you know the weight of expectation on my shoulders for this, and I hope to do you proud. A huge thank you to @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo And the entire Tears of the Kingdom team for entrusting me with such a badass. <3
