Beloved Bethesda voice actor Wes Johnson, known for his work in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Fallout 3, Starfield, and countless other titles, was found critically ill in his hotel room last week. His family is now seeking support from fans.
As reported by PC Gamer, Johnson's wife Kim and family have launched a GoFundMe campaign to cover mounting medical expenses and living costs while he’s unable to work. The campaign states that Johnson remains in intensive care, fighting for his life.

After repeated attempts to contact him, hotel security discovered him unconscious and barely alive in his room. Emergency responders struggled to find a pulse.
His extensive voice acting portfolio is heavily featured in Bethesda Game Studios titles. Recent roles include Ron Hope in Starfield.
