Final Fantasy VII Revelation Announces an NPC-ified Version of Shiva Voiced by Marisha Ray | NYCC 2026
The Critical Role performer is also the real-life wife of the voice of Vincent Valentine.
Final Fantasy VII Revelation revealed a new version of Shiva, played by Marisha Ray, known as "Polydroid Shiva" at the game's New York Comic Con panel. Ray, a performer from Critical Role, will join the game as this pointy ice lady summon. During the panel, Ray announced a snowboarding minigame and blamed Vincent for her "situation," demanding him to "drop on a board, caped one, and give my slopes a spin."
Matt Mercer, the voice of Vincent Valentine, expressed amazement at acting alongside Ray and the team's reaction to her casting, despite initial hesitation over potential nepotism. Ray stood up from the front row of the panel, but did not join the stage. Final Fantasy VII Revelation is set to release on April 8, 2027, and director Naoki Hamaguchi teased that it will take over 100 hours for completionists to beat.
