The game has sold over a million copies, even though the first season is not fully released yet, indicating AdHoc Studios recognizes its success. With the final episodes set to launch this week, the studio knows fans crave more content. Combining a superhero comedy with a management simulation has proven highly engaging, leaving the question of a second season pressing on the developers.
"We're going to have to at least think about Season 2 now," said Pierre Shorette, co-lead at AdHoc, during the Friends Per Second podcast.
Dispatch Season 1 sold a million copies in just ten days, demonstrating strong demand for games similar to Telltale's narrative style.
AdHoc also has plans for its next project, collaborating closely with Critical Role to develop a game set in the world of Exandria. This suggests that even if a second season for Dispatch is planned, it may not arrive soon. Fans hope the development will be smoother than that of The Wolf Among Us 2.
*SPOILER FREE* Dispatch gains momentum as it progresses, delivering a star-studded superhero story. The game aims to bring the classic Telltale formula into the present day, with engaging episodes like Flambae karaoke that invite repeated playthroughs.
Author's summary: Dispatch's unexpected success has prompted AdHoc Studios to consider a new season, while also focusing on an ambitious new project with Critical Role's Exandria world.
