English began her career in theatre in 2015, with roles in productions of
Abyss at
Arcola Theatre and
Future Conditional at
The Old Vic. English's first video game voice acting role was in
Divinity: Original Sin II (2017), a role-playing game developed by
Larian Studios, where she played about seventy different characters. She voiced Latenna the Albinauric in
Elden Ring (2022). English reunited with Larian Studios when she joined the cast of ''
Baldur's Gate 3'' (2023). She portrayed the
half-elf cleric Shadowheart, providing both voice acting and motion capture performances for the character. The character is considered a fan favorite among the game's audience and by English herself, who enjoyed the authenticity and complexity of the relationship players can have when becoming friends with or romancing Shadowheart. In 2024, she was selected as one of the twenty
BAFTA Breakthrough UK participants for her role in the game. She voiced Maelle in the 2025 video game
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. She participated in
blind auditions for the role before being cast. The game's development team added a "story mode" difficulty setting with less challenging combat after English told them that she wanted to play the game, but could not complete it unless there was an easy mode. Her performance received acclaim from critics, and Tessa Kaur of
TheGamer called her character "the emotional core" of the game. She won the "Best Performance" award at
The Game Awards 2025 for her role in
Expedition 33. English hosted the
Future Games Show Spring showcase in 2025. She will play the lead role, Gwendolyn, in the upcoming video game
Tides of Annihilation. In November 2025, English announced that she will play the role of Empress Alora in the upcoming video game
Soulframe, and her voice can already be heard in the game's playable Pre-alpha version. == Personal life ==
