As well as gearing up for a huge, sold-out stadium tour this summer, My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way has also been busy using his voice elsewhere.

The singer has joined the cast for the new Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant’s Eye collection of pinball games, along with Michael Dorn, Kevin Smith, Luke Gygax, Chris Prynoski, Brendon Small, Anthony Carboni, Mica Burton, Matthew Mercer, Laura Bailey and Marisha Ray.

It’s not been announced who Gerard will voice, but a teaser reveals that the game will feature some “iconic enemies, including a red dragon, gelatinous cube, mimic, Sammaster the lich, Xanathar the beholder, an owlbear”.

A full description reveals that, in these games, “players are chosen members of the Dragonshield Guild, trying to defeat the dragon queen Tiamat, who is hatching a plan to rise again, triggering the War of Dragons, with Xanathar, Balinor and Sammaster all fighting for power.

“Players will experience the game’s fantasy world under the glass, fusing pinball with the iconic franchise like never before.”

With artwork by Vincent Proce and music from Cris Velasco (Bloodborne, Mass Effect 2), Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant’s Eye is available in three different editions, costing between $6,999 and $12,999.

“We’re so excited for players to experience one of the most iconic and beloved franchises that is perfect for pinball,” announces Seth Davis, President and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc. “Get ready to roll through a D&D adventure like never before.”
