Beloved voice actor Wes Johnson, known for his work in numerous Bethesda titles including Skyrim, Fallout 3, and Starfield, is critically ill. His family has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover his mounting medical expenses and living costs while he's unable to work.
According to a PC Gamer report, Johnson's wife, Kim, discovered him unconscious and barely alive in his hotel room after he failed to appear at a charity event. Emergency responders had difficulty detecting a pulse. He remains in intensive care.
The GoFundMe page, which initially set a goal of $50,000, has already surpassed its target significantly, raising over $144,791 from over 2,200 donors.
Beyond his extensive video game career, Johnson has also served as the public address announcer for the Washington Capitals for 25 years and boasts a diverse resume of film and television roles. His memorable video game performances include Ron Hope in Starfield, Sheogorath and Lucien Lachance in Oblivion, multiple Daedric Princes in Morrowind, Fawkes and Maister Burke in Fallout 3, Hermaeus Mora and Emperor Titus Mede II in Skyrim, and Moe Cronin in Fallout 4. The gaming community is rallying behind him and his family during this difficult time.
