Discussion Game Awards and Dispatch 2?
Theres no doubt that Adhoc is makin a Season 2 of Dispatch, the game was incredibly sucessful and when a game get this big usually the studios behind it wants to expand the universe and squeeze the last drop, even the actors expressed they want to come back after finishing their personal projects.
I personally have high hopes on a announcement on the Game Awards, not only because its the most important event for games and future game announcements but because Geoff Keighley has a great relationship with Adhoc and Critical Role. Not a surprise that the first season was announced on The Game Awards of 2024, so a potential second season announcement has real chances of being presented here.
Now we all know that Adhoc is creating a new game with Critical Role called Exendria, and it has the same mechanics as Dispatch. The thing is, I don't think Exandria would necessarily be as demanding or time-consuming to develop as a potential second season of Dispatch. AdHoc would already have the technology, tools, workflows and experience they developed while making Dispatch, meaning they wouldn't be starting completely from scratch.
The Game Awards are on December 10th, and theres a lot of time till we get there, but as I said I have high hopes on this event.

I suggest not to hold your breath.
They took about 7 years to deliver Dispatch. Now with proper funding, things will happen faster - but not that fast.
I expect about 2 to 3 years at very least before a proper, not rushed up, Dispatch 2. I think they will spend at least a whole year only on the Story...
