There are few personalities in gaming that can inspire fans to really make anything, like Hideo Kojima. In this case, the director of Alan Wake 2 and head of Remedy have confirmed his plans to collaborate with another prominent figure in the industry to establish a unique club.
Ben Starr, a voice actor in Final Fantasy, is teaming up with Sam Lake to form an unconventional vigilante group that seeks justice. The only requirement to join is to have an amazing surname; this could be the most peculiar and great collaboration in video game history.
Ben Starr and Sam Lake Join Forces in the Most Interesting and Unexpected Collaboration
Lately, there has been a wave of collaboration in the video game industry; titles like Fortnite, Call of Duty, and many mobile games have all been a part of this. However, there’s always a need for a more novel form of collaboration that hasn’t occurred before. Two very popular gaming personalities are joining forces in a very strange way; they will create an exclusive crime-fighting club that will only accept certain kinds of members.
Ben Starr, a voice actor from Final Fantasy 16, and Remedy director Sam Lake posted a weird video on X talking about a new club that they will create.

This club will be some kind of vigilante crime-fighting group that will not respect the law at all. The whole idea is to invite anyone to be a member; the only requirement is to have a cool surname, and that means you are part of this vigilante crime fighting association.
The Final Fantasy Actor and the Remedy Director Make For a Very Fun Combination
This video went viral on X very quickly, and many other popular gaming personalities replied with their surnames, trying to be part of the club. The fans seem to really enjoy this odd collaboration, there is something inherently funny having Lake and Starr joke about their cool names and talk about other things that make no sense. There are no details about what the purpose of this was, as after the exchange between these two ended the video didn’t offer anything else.
Lake, who is highly popular on social media, frequently appears in various parts of the world alongside various game personalities while sipping coffee, so this type of video aligns well with his interests. Starr is also a very active social media figure, with many followers eager to see what project he will be involved in next. The actor has numerous credits in his career, including various series and movies.
Remedy has just revealed a few updates about the upcoming projects involving some of the IPs that the studio is working on for the next couple of years. Titles like the remake of the first two Max Payne games, the sequel to Control, and an unnamed project are all actively being developed by different parts of the company. This studio has solidified its reputation thanks to several amazing games like Alan Wake 2.
