Look, not every dating sim under the sun is insatiably horny, but I don’t think you can argue that Date Everything! isn’t. Like, the whole game is about how you can date everything, from a chair, to a clock, to a fridge. There’s literally 100 different objects you can date, this is somebody’s something for sure. And, as revealed in a new trailer earlier this week, as it turns out all you tabletop fiends out there will be able to date a twenty-sided die.
Surprising literally no one, Chance, as the anthropomorphic D20 is known as, is voiced by Critical Role star and prolific voice actor Matthew Mercer. Who could have seen that coming! Chance looks to be exactly what you might envision a guy that loves Dungeons & Dragons a bit too much – a bit of a bumbling buffoon, way too happy to go into detail, and perhaps a bit too eager to play with someone.
Following up a request to play the game’s version of the popular TTRPG (dubbed Grottos and Gargoyles, that’s a new one) he does express that eagerness quite plainly by saying “it would only be the single greatest thing you could do for me”, which is killing my vibe a bit personally. But hey, just because you can date everything, doesn’t mean you should, right?
Mercer’s involvement is no surprise, given that the game is being developed by prolific voice actors like Ray Chase (Final Fantasy 15), Robbie Daymond (Hi-Fi Rush, Sailor Moon), Max Mittelman (Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth), and Amanda Hufford (Genshin Impact). Not to mention there’s other voice talent like Felicia Day (Supernatural), Johnny Yong Bosch (Bleach), and Grey DeLisle (The Last Airbender). A bonafide feast for people that like to play/ watch things and go “wait I definitely know that voice, let me check IMDB.”
Date Everything! doesn’t have an exact release date just yet, but it’s due out this June.
