• The Continuity Reboot of the Spyro the Dragon series actually billed itself on its name talent, which included people like Elijah Wood, Gary Oldman, David Spade and Wayne Brady in its primary roles. Even the minor roles tended to be filled with recognizable cartoon voice actors.
• The Kingdom Hearts series sports an impressive cast, featuring Haley Joel Osment, David Gallagher, Hayden Panettiere, Jesse Mc Cartney, Brittany Snow, Christopher Lee, Leonard Nimoy and Mark Hamill. And that's not even getting into the crossover characters. The roles that aren't filled by Celebrity Voice Actors instead tend to go to voice actors who have a strong fan following in their own right. This is even quite visible in the first game, when you got Lance Bass, Mandy Moore, and Billy Zane.
• The Brazilian Portuguese dub of League of Legends includes the biggest names form Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

• Mitsumete Knight, then aimed by Konami as the next Tokimeki Memorial-like Cash Cow Franchise, benefitted of such a voice actor cast: among the main heroines can be found Hiroko Konishi, Yumi Touma, Mariko Kouda, Kikuko Inoue, Junko Iwao, Michiko Neya, Yuka Imai, Houko Kuwashima, Shiho Niiyama, Yuko Mizutani, Yuko Minaguchi, and Wakana Yamazaki; the enemy characters count Daisuke Gōri, Takeshi Aono, Nobutoshi Canna, and Yasunori Masutani in their ranks; and the secondary characters have Kazuya Nakai and Hideo Ishikawa as well.

This is a notable first for Nintendo as they typically use staff members and other persons who are not known for voice-acting.
• Fire Emblem:

  • The Japanese version of Fire Emblem Fates stars Nobunaga Shimazaki, Satomi Sato, Yūichi Nakamura, Kaori Nazuka, Yuki Kaji, Hisako Kanemoto, Katsuyuki Konishi, Mamoru Miyano and Miyuki Sawashiro. And that's just the main cast.
  • Fire Emblem Heroes has, to put it lightly, too many recognizable voice actors to count, both in English and in Japanese. In a mobile game.
• Dead or Alive's Japanese dub featured Houko Kuwashima, Hideyuki Hori, Wakana Yamazaki, Hikaru Midorikawa, Joji Nakata, Bin Shimada, Banjo Ginga, Nobutoshi Canna, Yumi Touma, Unshō Ishizuka, Kenta Miyake, Junko Minagawa, Kotono Mitsuishi, Maaya Sakamoto, Ayako Kawasumi, Yui Horie, Ai Nonaka, Ryoko Shiraishi, Hiroki Tochi, Tetsu Inada, Michie Tomizawa, Hiroki Yasumoto and Sumire Uesaka.
• For Super Robot Wars, this is both a requirement and an expectation, due to many voice actors having to reprise their roles from the countless giant mecha anime represented in different installments. Hell, even the Banpresto Originals get their own Names to Know in Anime. There's just too many to list.
• Fable III definitely counts. While there had been some notable names in earlier installments, the third game has a huge voice cast that includes Ben Kingsley, Stephen Fry, Simon Pegg, Naomie Harris, Michael Fassbender, Zoë Wanamaker, Bernard Hill, Nicholas Hoult, John Cleese, Sean Pertwee, Jonathan Ross, Jason Manford, Mark Heap, Sarah Hadland, Daniela Denby-Ashe, Rosie Cavaliero and Lucy Gaskell. Some of these weren't even main characters, and because of the branching plot, there was no guarantee they'd all turn up in your play through.
• XCOM 2 War of The Chosen Expansion Pack features the voicework of Jonathan Frakes, Michael Dorn, Marina Sirtis, Denise Crosby and John de Lancie. Jake Solomon Assured us that it's a total coincidence that several actors from one of his favorite TV shows happen to be in the cast.
• Ripper: It's rather astonishing how many A-list actors this FMV game managed to attract. Christopher Walken, Burgess Meredith, Karen Allen, and John Rhys-Davies all get top billing. Paul Giamatti is also in this, but this was back when he was an unknown NYC actor.
• Street Fighter IV Japanese dub featured Hiroki Takahashi, Yuji Kishi, Fumiko Orikasa, Hiroki Yasumoto, Junichi Suwabe, Miyuki Sawashiro, Mie Sonozaki, Kenta Miyake, Yūichi Nakamura, Yuji Ueda, Toru Okawa, Wataru Hatano, Akio Ōtsuka, Misato Fukuen, Daisuke Kishio, Eri Kitamura, Saki Fujita, Akeno Watanabe, Ayumi Fujimura, Atsuko Tanaka and Wataru Takagi. They also reprise their roles in SFV save for Nakamura, Hatano, Fujita and Takagi.

• Due to the Trails Series being one long continuity, it was inevitable that with The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie, this was going to be inevitable with at least 51 playable characters, all who have been voiced by A-listers over the years (and most of them weren't when the series first started back in 2004). From the Sky series alone, we have Akemi Kanda, Mitsuki Saiga, Takehito Koyasu, Hiromi Konno, Takayuki Kondo, and Aoi Yūki. From the Zero series, we have Tetsuya Kakihara, Aya Endo, Kaori Mizuhashi, Shin-ichiro Miki, Masumi Asano, Junko Minagawa, Rina Sato, Rie Kugimiya, Toshiyuki Morikawa, Kazuya Nakai, Mitsuaki Madono, and Rikiya Koyama.

And that's just for starters!
• Driv3r grabbed Michael Madsen, Ving Rhames, Mickey Rourke, Michelle Rodriguez, and Iggy Pop for its cast.
• Death Stranding has a mind-boggling cast for a video game. TV and movie stars like Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux, Lindsay Wagner, Emily O'Brien, Margaret Qualley, and even Conan O'Brien are present, alongside some of the biggest names in gaming voice acting like Troy Baker, Yuri Lowenthal, and Matthew Mercer. Oh yeah, and filmmakers Guillermo del Toro and Nicolas Winding Refn lend their likenesses to the game, because why not?
• The Saints Row series have had plenty of iconic actors in the cast throughout the series. The first game had Keith David, Mila Kunis, Daniel Dae Kim, Michael Clarke Duncan, Clancy Brown and David Carradine, to name a few.
