Indie pop band OFK made an appearance at the latest PlayStation State of Play to make fun of war games, and to announce that their interactive, episodic narrative series – We Are OFK – will be launching on PlayStation® 5 and PlayStation® 4 and the voice cast has also been announced. OFK’s debut pop EP will be released alongside the series. The band’s first single Follow/Unfollow, performed at The Game Awards last year, has climbed to half a million listens on streaming platforms and the band has recently signed with record label Sony Music Masterworks for their first pop EP.
In addition, the team is thrilled to reveal today the all-star cast of voice talent in We Are OFK.
The cast of We Are OFK is led by Ally Maki (Toy Story 4, Dear White People) as the heartfelt and sometimes chaotic Itsumi Saitō on keyboard, Syhaya Aviel (The Circle, Vinyl) as the cool and insightful Carter Flores who provides visuals for the band, Fiona Rene (I Know What You Did Last Summer, ABC’s Stumptown) as the powerful music wizard Jey Zhang who is OFK’s producer, and We Are OFK’s Creative Director Teddy Dief is the romantic eccentric Luca Le Fae – the vocalist:
“The first glimmer of We Are OFK came from my weird mashup of past careers… vocalist, filmmaker, RPG designer.” said Teddy Dief. “But that mixture didn’t explode in my face thanks to actual pros from TV, pop music, and games, who shaped what it became – a rare, glittery cross-industry team! I’m wildly grateful, to the cast for letting me perform and sing with them, and to the band for letting us tell their story.”
