Sir Patrick Stewart’s Complete Gameography: Every Video Game Appearance By The Iconic Actor
Nicholas Becher is a gaming journalist with an MFA in Creative Writing from FAU. With extensive experience playing video games, he covers all forms of gaming content at Screen Rant, from breaking news to the latest fan theories. Most-played games range from Clair Obscur to Civ to Elden Ring to Halo 2 and beyond.
While Sir Patrick Stewart will go down in history as one of the most influential actors of all time, his legacy extends far beyond his theatrical and cinematic appearances. Stewart's various iconic roles, particularly as Jean-Luc Picard from the Star Trek franchise and Professor Xavier from X-Men, have transcended their original mediums, making their way into countless adaptations, spinoffs, and other projects that have introduced the legendary actor to entirely new audiences.
Among his many accomplishments, Stewart also built an impressive catalog of video game appearances spanning several decades, lending his unmistakable voice to some of gaming's most recognizable franchises. His involvement wasn't limited to Star Trek and X-Men either, with memorable performances in everything from fantasy RPGs like Oblivion to beloved action-adventure games.
Stewart's gaming legacy extends beyond his actual voice performances as well, with numerous titles featuring his likeness, even without his direct involvement. The following gameography explores his complete chronological history in video games, distinguishing between his original voice roles, appearances featuring archival recordings, and games that simply depict his likeness. It also looks at his contributions to non-video-game releases, including tabletop games, collectible cards, and the upcoming Magic: The Gathering crossover.
Every Patrick Stewart Video Game Appearance Over His Lifetime
While Stewart's various Star Trek appearances in video games won't surprise anyone, many fans may not realize just how much he was involved in the industry outside his role as Picard. His voice roles date back to that of King Richard in the 1993 MS-DOS RPG Lands of Lore, Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun in the old-school hack-and-slash game Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone, and of course, his iconic role in The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion as Emperor Uriel Septim VII.
However, he also took on obscure and seemingly random roles, such as narrating the 2019 3D puzzle game Felix the Ripper or voicing Leonardo da Vinci in 2015's Leonardo's Cat. The following is a comprehensive breakdown of every Stewart appearance across his legendary career.

Every Original Video Game Voice Performance By Patrick Stewart
If you're looking specifically for original voice performances by Stewart without games that just used his likeness or recreated audio from previous performances, you'll find a trove of incredible work. Noteable entries throughout his career are the Nine Worlds interactive education game, which may not sound exciting on the surface, but you can actually watch the entire thing on YouTube for a major nostalgia trip and to experience an absolutely stunning Stewart voice performance.
Further, games like Castlevania: Lords of Shadow are still available to play now on Steam, where you can hear Stewart's appearance as Zobek, or the 9/10-rated My Memory of Us by Juggler Games where he delivers a heartwrenching voice-over narration.

Patrick Stewart's Tabletop, Trading Card & Pinball Game Appearances
Of course, Stewart's influence on the gaming industry extended beyond video games alone. His likeness appeared in numerous tabletop and trading card games over the years, and he even recorded original dialogue for the 1993 Star Trek: The Next Generation pinball machine.
Perhaps most notably, his legacy is being celebrated in the upcoming Magic: The Gathering x Star Trek Universes Beyond crossover, which features an exceptionally rare Captain Jean-Luc Picard card personally signed by Stewart himself. Fewer than 250 copies of the autographed card will be available when the crossover officially launches on November 13, and it will be an especially coveted pull now considering the actor's recent passing.

From the bridge of the Enterprise to the throne room of Cyrodiil, Sir Patrick Stewart brought the same conviction to video games that defined his work on stage and screen. For some players, his voice as Emperor Uriel Septim VII was their first introduction to the actor. For others, hearing Picard again felt like reuniting with an old friend.
Even the games that borrowed only his likeness speak to the enduring reach of his characters. Across decades, platforms, and genres, Patrick Stewart left gamers with some truly special and unforgettable performances, giving us memories that we can revisit and experience again whenever we want, and going back through his catalog of game appearances is the perfect way to honor the legendary actor's memory.
