Critical Role Video Game in Development, Set in Exandria with New Storyline
LOS ANGELES, JUL 21 – Critical Role and AdHoc Studio are co-developing a narrative-driven video game set in Exandria, targeting a shorter development cycle than typical AAA titles, with multiple projects planned.
- On July 21, 2025, Critical Role announced a collaboration with AdHoc Studio on multiple projects, including a new Exandria video game in early development.
- The collaboration started when Travis Willingham, Critical Role CEO and cast member, auditioned for Dispatch and was impressed by its narrative-driven design, leading to the partnership.
- While still in early development, Critical Role's game will have a smaller scope with a two-year timeline, according to Willingham, and is not a AAA title with a five-year cycle.
- Michael Choung said `It's the kind of collaboration you hope for`, while the partnership also includes future Dispatch brand development such as merchandise and tabletop gaming.
- Looking ahead, the franchise's expansion into interactive storytelling will deepen community engagement and broaden its global reach.
