man eater was launched into the vast ocean of video games. Tripwire Interactive’s RPG puts you in the shoes of the titular predator, one who naturally can’t speak.
With man eater being a story-based single player game, you may be curious as to how the storyline is told with a silent protagonist. man eater luckily has someone telling the story between the game sections.
If the voice sounds familiar, you may be puzzled over who it is. I no longer ask how we reveal who the narrator of the mystery is.

If the man- eating The Narrator sounds familiar to you, it’s because he’s Chris Parnell. The actor is best known for his eight-year stint as a Saturday Night Live cast member between 1998 and 2006. You can also recognize him from various film roles including Anchorman , 21 Jump Street , and the Hotel Transylvania series.
Parnell’s most famous roles, however, have been in hit TV shows. Parnell appeared as Dr. Leo Spaceman in 30 Rock , playing Cyril Figgis and Buck Henry Archer and Jerry Smith in Rick and Morty . These are his most notable television roles, but the 53-year-old has appeared – or voiced characters – in numerous shows for 24 years.
Parnell lent his voice to the Tom Connors GTA character online as well, and Man Eater represents her second foray into voice acting in video games. Parnell is the host of an in-game reality show called Maneaters vs. Sharkhunters and acts as a guide for the player throughout the campaign.
According to reports , Parnell recorded 90 different lines of dialogue dedicated solely to situations where player sharks eat humans. Eat enough of them, then, and you’ll feel each one of them.
