A NEW mural has been unveiled in Edinburgh to celebrate the launch of the first ever Scottish character in a successful online video game.
Valorant, which is played by millions of players each month, is a first-person tactical shooter game.
Isla Campbell, the voice artist behind Clove, says it was brilliant getting to voice an “authentically Scottish character” which seeks to avoid stereotypes.“Getting to be unapologetically and authentically Scottish, not a stereotype, not overplayed, is so important and such a privilege that people like my friends who play Valorant will hear Clove’s voice and go ‘hold on that’s actually how I speak’.
The artwork, completed by prominent Edinburgh street artist Elph, has been erected at Quality Yard – an outdoor exhibition space located in Leith that houses numerous street art pieces from local artists. “You’re just used to things being in your own city but hopefully this will travel a bit further afield with all the photographs and video.The artist explains he didn’t know much about the game beforehand but that the opportunity was too good to turn down despite not really playing video games anymore.
He added: “I think once I start to draw stuff, it just evolves from there. My style seems to take over a bit anyway.The mural is made up of four panels which are accompanied by cinematic projections to illuminate the piece at night with each panel telling a different story of the character’s journey from death to rebirth, tying in with their unique in-game power of self-revival.
