French Lara Croft Voice Actor Serves Aspyr Notice Over Alleged AI Replication in Tomb Raider Remasters

Her legal team seeks to stop sales pending sales records.

Overview

  • Françoise Cadol alleges Aspyr used artificial intelligence to imitate her voice in Tomb Raider 4–6 Remastered without consent.
  • The complaint followed an August 14 patch that restored lines, after which players reported noticeable differences from Cadol’s original French performance.
  • Cadol’s lawyer, Jonathan Elkaim, describes the disputed audio as metallic, choppy, and reminiscent of her timbre, and accuses Aspyr of misleading consumers.
  • The formal notice requests withdrawal of the compilation from sale and documentation detailing how many copies have been sold.
  • Aspyr’s patch notes referenced localization and voiceover adjustments, and the company has not responded to requests for comment on the AI allegation.
