After he voiced Civilization 6's E3 trailer, there was a lot of speculation about whether actor Sean Bean would be lending his voice to more of the game. And after playing Civilization 6 hands-on, we can confirm that Bean will be the voice of the historical quotations that appear after you complete a new technology, and now also for the new civics. You can watch the video above starting at 5:30 to hear how he sounds. Bean has big shoes to fill. Actor Leonard Nimoy, who passed away in February of 2015, provided his thoughtful intonations in Civilizations 4 and 5. Bean has done some game voice acting before, most recently as the narrator in survival horror game Kholat. He was also the voice of Emperor Martin Septim in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and this is definitely his largest video game role since then. Serving as an omniscient, unseen narrator that transcends time itself will presumably make it difficult for Bean to be killed, but we wouldn't rule anything out.Civ 6 has introduced a civics tree fueled by culture generation, alongside the regular science-based technology tree. A quote is read both when a civic or a tech is completed, which means Civ 6 will feature a lot more quotes to be read than its predecessors. You can hear about all the differences between Civ 5 and Civ 6 by watching the full video above.

Hey, if i had Sean Bean in a recording booth, i wouldn't be able to help myself either
Sean Bean is not the star of Civilization VI. But he is one of the highlights.The role of Civilization tech narrator is a famous one! Leonard Nimoy, for example, was incredible in the job, turning a dull series of quotes into a real treat every time you made a little advance in Civilization IV.Bean, who voices Civ VI’s collection of famous sayings from history, academia and...elsewhere does just as good a job. Below you’ll find a few examples.
Sean Bean brought his calming voice to the narration and tech tree quotes for Civilization VI. His character also is seen as the focal point as the game progresses therough the ages in various civs. Now, Firaxis and 2K have released a look at Bean in the sound studio.The video is interesting if you enjoy seeing a face saying the words you hear in the game. And it also provides a light-hearted moment, as Bean is told he dies in the launch trailer for the game. That should be nothing new to Bean, who dies quite a bit in all his films.Bean follows in some impressive narrating footsteps. The late Leonard Nimoy narrated Civ IV, and Morgan Sheppard lent his voice in Civ V. The game has also been quite popular, having sold more than a million copies.
