Gex Trilogy to offer both PAL and NTSC voice lines in upcoming update

Of all the classic PlayStation One mascot platformers, Gex is likely one of the least known. Developed by Crystal Dynamics, the trilogy released between 1995 and 1999 and is perhaps best known for its use of different voice actors for its UK and US releases. As part of the recent re-release of the trilogy via LimitedRunGames, an update is slated to add options for both PAL and NTSC audio.

Taking to BlueSky, the official LimitedRunGames page shared the following: “Thank you for making the launch of GEX Trilogy a huge success! It’s been in the works for a while and we’re finally able to announce that the PAL versions of GEX 2 & GEX 3, featuring the voices of Leslie Philips and Danny John-Jules, respectively, will be added in an update!”

Fortunately, fans don’t have to wait long, as the update has already been pushed to Steam, with other platforms said to be following suit “once the patch has completed certification.”

For the uninitiated, the NTSC and PAL versions of Gex differed in multiple ways – not just with the voice actors. Much of the game’s dialogue and writing was also changed, with many of the jokes being adapted to suit each respective region.

As such, having the PAL versions of Gex being made available alongside the NTSC release is welcome to see and makes this trilogy feel like much more of a complete package.
