What's New Roundup - March 2024
🕑 Added 2024-03-31 14:00:00 +0000 UTCWhat was supposed to be a break has been a jam-packed March, as I started off picking up loads of freelance jobs and collabs because I simply don't know how to switch off. Here's a collection of the places you can find me this month, all the titles are clickable links out to the related projects for easy access! π
Future Games Show: Spring Showcase 2024
Eagle-eared listeners (I actually have no idea how good eagle hearing is but let's just assume it's good) have caught my voice reverberating around the halls of the Future Games Show Spring Showcase for the Ones to Watch Yearbook. You can hear my voice in the Still Wakes the Deep section, as well as for Hellblade II: Senua's Saga and Star Wars Outlaws, with the latter two having their own videos linked that have been pulled out from the main show.
This month I had the pleasure of voicing a few characters across NoSleep episodes, which I absolutely love doing and still feel incredibly honoured to be able to do. You can hear me in:
S20E22 Maddy Long-Legs - FREE
S20E24 Die for Her - FREE
You can also find my curated playlists of NoSleep episodes I appear in on Spotify, with one for freely available episodes and one for paid episodes listed below. Just to note, paid episodes are ones I've appeared in but past the free listening point, so are my contributions are only accessible for those that are NoSleep subscribers:
Resident Evil Ft. Ash Millman | BuddyGames
I love the Buddies! Rosie and Liam got me onto playing the original Resident Evil in this BuddyGames special, and of course it was loads of chaotic zombie-smashing fun. Being held captive in the Buddy Bunker sounds quite bad on paper, but as you can see it's actually a lovely time. They treat their prisoners very well.
Making PlayStation Access In Dragonβs Dogma 2's Character Creator
DID I MENTION I AM IN A GAME?? Dragon's Dogma 2 came out on the 22nd of March, and with it we got to unleash our very own PlayStation Access pawns that we designed ourselves! Ginger era Ash, named Ashen, is accessible by searching the Unique Pawn section at a Riftstone. In game, I also created Toastie as my own companion pawn, so technically you can have both of us in a team at the same time. I'm so, so excited about this one and so thankful to the Capcom gang for making it happen for us (as well as a load of other brilliant creators too).
Here's a screenshot from in-game of my character joined by the witchy Ashen and lil magical Toastie pawns!
Dave and Ash Vs A Haunted House | Real Life Alone in the Dark!
I'M SO HAPPY THIS IS FINALLY, PROPERLY OUT AND I CAN SHARE THIS WITH YOU. We filmed this months ago and it's one of the best, scariest, most intense and brilliant experiences I've had in my career. A whole haunted house created by THQ Nordic to promote Alone in the Dark, compete with monstrous apparitions, possessed objects, and moving walls made for an actual horror movie experience - though I definitely didn't handle it as well as I expected... You'll have to watch to see what I mean.
Dave and I also appear in THQ Nordic's roundup video Alone in the Dark in Real Life for this as well!
The Final Fright - Ash's Goodbye Stream!
After a short delay, my final PlayStation Access video (a pre-recorded livestream) where I set Rosie, Dave, and Rob some spooky challenges has gone live. The perfect capper to the perfect job which has shaped me in so many ways. I'm gonna miss the PSA lot massively, but it's time to spread my lil bat wings.
All the other PlayStation Access videos that I worked on and went live in March are below:
Top 10 PS5 Games - 2024 Edition - Exactly what it says on the tin
Gaming Deaths Weβll Never Forget - The PlayStation Access Podcast - My final podcast appearance, so obviously I went dramatic with the theme
PlayStation Plus Monthly Games - March 2024 - PS4 & PS5 - I've done a lot of PS Store and Plus updates in my time, so here's one last one for the road
There's not much more I can add about how incredible this gifted trip was than what I've shared on Instagram as a collection of pictures and highlights reel, as this was just the reset I needed and such a wonderful, insightful look at how the Animal Love Rescue Centre helps animals that need it most. Gorgeous country, gorgeous food, gorgeous little creatures at every turn on the most gorgeous rural hotel site. There's a giveaway on the reel for you to win the very same trip as well, so definitely check it out and please donate if you can!
Personal Life
I've dedicated my life to relentlessly ploughing through Dragon's Dogma 2 to the point it's become a bit of a sickness. Dragonsplague, am I right? Are any of you playing and enjoying the delights of Vermund and beyond? Have you used my pawn?!
Just wanted to say thank you again for your support in this initial phase of stepping back, switching off, and then setting up. It's been a month full of madness that looks set to continue its crazy up spiral into April despite what I've just said about trying to unwind - so before we get to the next load of adventures, I've got some dragons to slay.
Peace and love, blood and guts,
Ash xxx
(That's an old one! Bringing it back. Trendsetting.)
P.S. the picture is a meme that work made from when I was shouting on a table at the Christmas party. I thought I'd add it as a fun look behind the scenes! Can't remember the context (I think I was trying to get everyone's attention for a live game of Knightmare? π) so feel free to add your own: "when someone tells me Evolve is bad"

I'm still trying to figure out the best way of sharing all my side bits when they come together!

Will be looking for all those side gigs. I'm not tapped into everything, only managed to see the Access/Reach stuff that has come out.
