Who Is Handler Walter in Armored Core 6?

One of the primary characters you meet and deal with in Armored Core 6 is Handler Walter. He is the leader of the mercenary group the player, known as Raven, joins. Since he is one of the central characters in the main plot, you’ll hear his voice quite a bit. This might have you wondering where you recognize Handler Walter’s voice from.

Who Voices Handler Walter in Armored Core 6?

When it comes to your leader in Armored Core 6, the voice of Handler Walter in English is a rather familiar one for video game and anime fans. His actor in the English language version is Patrick Seitz. You may know Seitz from his plethora of voiceover roles in video games and anime alike.

For instance, some of my favorite anime roles I remember Patrick Seitz from prior to Armored Core 6 include Endeavor in My Hero Academia, Dio in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Laxus from Fairy Tail, and Jiren in Dragon Ball Super. On the other hand, you might know him from his past video game roles. Some of the most notable past game roles before this title include Nekomaru in Danganronpa 2, Olberic in Octopath Traveler, and Scorpion in some of the Mortal Kombat games.

If you’re playing this game with the Japanese voices on, you will hear Takayuki Sakazume as the voice of Handler Walter, instead. Oddly enough, he isn’t too common of a video game voice actor, but there are a couple of anime series he has been in. This includes playing Vincent Van Gogh in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and Besson in Mobile Suit Gundam: Unicorn.

Sakazume is mostly known for his dubbing roles of popular international series like The Walking Dead. One of his only video game roles prior to this was Mephiles the Dark in the 2006 Sonic the Hedgehog reboot.

Armored Core 6 is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
