The narrator in Indika. Or really anybody in Indika. Especially considering the English actors aren't even the original actors.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
The voice actors really hit it out of the park with this one. But this scene in particular:
Such a good scene. This is my vote too.

Halo master fucking chief! Hell yeah brother
In terms of pure voice acting I think it's Date Everything. The game have a 100 different professional voice actors that want to seduce you.
Deep Rock galactic has some of my favourite voices and lines in it.
Where's Molly?!
I love how in game everyone dislikes molly, but everyone who plays the game would die for that lovable hunk of junk.
GTA San Andreas has a few good ones my Favorite Being AXL Rose as the DJ from KDST.
But many suprising actors in there : Samuel Jackson, James Woods, Peter Fonda and Ice T:

The voice acting in Hellblade always gives me chills.
Alan wake is damn good
Isaac Clarke in the first Dead Space
Resident Evil on the PlayStation
Crusader: No Remorse
Wicked good acting in general (it had full motion video sequences in live action) and just a criminally underrated game from the DOS era.
The entire Command & Conquer series when Westwood was still handling them, especially Red Alert 2.

Not necessarily the biggest roles but I've always appreciated:
-
The narrator in the original Medieval: Total War (intro for example). Set the mood.
-
Prophet of Truth in Halo 2.
-
Dunmer male voice actor for Morrowind.
The first and last especially set the atmosphere so well.
I remember most of the super giant and double fine games having good voice acting. Jennifer Hale Femshepard from mass effect is a classic, and Matt Mercer does some great work with Edér and Aloth in pillars of eternity. Anything Keith David does is gold.
For me, one 2001 game is lodged forever in my mind, Hostile Waters
It's a great game, although sadly won't run on modern systems. And not strictly voice acting, more narration, but I've just re-watched the intro and Tom Baker's narration still gives me shivers.
Almost a quarter of a century since I first played it, the phrase "These are hostile waters" in Tom's voice still pops into my head from time to time.
Not an actor, but the early voice synthesis was amazing the first times hearing it:

The female player character in Outriders was surprisingly very good. With the right face and hair, it was like Bobby Draper from The Expanse.
Too bad the rest of the game was kind of meh.
