"Critical Role's co-founders are in the fourth quarter of a bumper 10th anniversary year. They're fresh off their latest stops on their international live show tour, and weeks from releasing their next Amazon-backed animated series. After a monthslong hiatus, they're bringing back the part of their business that made them famous a decade ago: a weekly live-streamed "Dungeons & Dragons" campaign. CEO Travis Willingham told BI that now is the "perfect time" for new viewers to try watching their content."
"The CR team announced in August that its chief creative officer and longtime game master, Matt Mercer, would cede control of the long-term campaign to Brennan Lee Mulligan of "Dimension 20" fame. Mulligan, whose crew at Dropout's "D20" this January sold out Madison Square Garden for their own live show, has created a new world to play in, Aramán. It's a departure from Mercer's Exandria, in which CR's first three campaigns were based."
Critical Role is restarting a weekly live-streamed Dungeons & Dragons campaign after a monthslong hiatus, with episodes beginning October 2 on Beacon, Twitch, and YouTube. Brennan Lee Mulligan will run the new long-form campaign in a fresh world called Aramán, marking a departure from Matt Mercer's Exandria. Matt Mercer will participate as a player rather than the long-term game master. CEO Travis Willingham described the relaunch as an accessible entry point for new viewers. The company is also celebrating its 10th anniversary year, touring internationally and preparing an Amazon-backed animated series release.
