    They probably changed voice actors. It wouldn't be the first time, although we never heard it, Rhys wasn't originally played by Troy Baker in Tales from the Borderlands, and unlike Javier it was confirmed that Sam Witwer was the voice of Rhys, Troy Baker was announced that he would be Rhys pretty close to launch. However, the reason Sam was changed was apparently becayse play-testers found Rhys to not be very likable and pretty much just a dick.

  • original sounded better.

  • I mean if we are honest I dont even heard that big a difference, it may very well be the same voice actor. The original voice he didnt seem to have an accent, so it could possibly be the same voice actor just doing an accent now, or Telltale hired a Cuban voice actor.

  • I dont think they ever announced who Javier's voice actor was back then, and we still dont know now.

    ....aw maaaan! I think you're right, they might've changed voice actor. Well if it is a new actor voicing Javier now, he still sounds friggin awesome and definitely fits the character. But if they got rid of the previous actor, then Telltale dudes, hire him for something else you crazy people! T_T his voice was like honey! HONEY!

    Dang it, I-I need to mourn!

  • They might've just asked him to deepen his voice for the role in full, like how Clementine has the same VA but a deeper voice.

    Whatever life has in store for me, I will never forget these words:

    "Those were marked too, we must be gettin' close. Just hold on..."

    This is my gift, my curse.

    Who am I?

    I'm Javier.

  • The voices sound exactly the same to me.

  • We must be getting close.

  • It's possible that the voice for the trailer was just a placeholder; Telltale also used a placeholder voice for The Stranger in earlier episodes of Season 1 of Walking Dead, prior to using the final voice actor in Episode 105.
