@rahulkohli13.bsky.social is brilliant in #SAROS 👏🏻

You’ll love his performance and he’s been a constant champion for the game since we started.

Honoured to work with him and he’s so good as Arjun Devraj 🔥

A little something regarding Saros ❤️

I know it’s cliche to say “this is a dream come true” but in the case of Saros, it really is. My first hobby/love was gaming. Before I left primary school, we were asked in assembly to tell the school what we wanted to do for a career. I played a VHS of video game trailers and said I wanted to make video games. One of my first jobs was working as a sales assistant at Gamestation (the UK equivalent of GameStop). One of my earliest paid acting gigs was a commercial for Little Big Planet on the PS Vita - I thought I finally made it. My next gig after starring in iZOMBiE was playing Fahz in Gears 5, I didn’t think anything could top that… until I was approached by Housemarque to play the lead in Saros. It’s been a long journey to get here, each moment along the way was special and the final destination isn’t just a career highlight, it’s one of the best moments of my life. Thank you HouseMarque with trusting me with your character, I hope Arjun is everything you asked for. And for the players, see you on March 20th ❤️
