‘Critical Role’ Releases Campaign 4 Trailer
by Anton Kromoff
Welcome to the table,
Check this out…
It’s a wild new world we are venturing into, and I honestly could not be more thrilled.
Critical Role has officially released the trailer for its highly anticipated Campaign 4. It is set to premiere on Thursday, October 2nd, and will introduce the new world of Aramán, a new cast featuring a rotating tables format, and, for the first time in Critical Role’s core campaign, a brand-new Storyteller, the wildly talented Brennan Lee Mulligan.
This marks a departure from the table and formula used in the last three campaigns set in the fantasy world of Exandria, created by Matthew Mercer. This campaign will have a large cast of players, including Laura Bailey, Taliesin Jaffe, Ashley Johnson, Mercer, Liam O’Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Riegel, Travis Willingham, Luis Carazo, Robbie Daymond, Aabria Iyengar, Whitney Moore, and Alexander Ward.
This well-known and talented cast of players will traverse the new world of Aramán in a West Marches-style approach to gameplay, where the story unfolds through the perspectives of three distinct rotating tables. There will be the valiant Soldiers, the vigorous Seekers, and the veiled Schemers. As their paths converge, the audience and players will get deeper insight into the lore and inner workings of the new world Brennan has created.
You catch the premiere of Campaign 4 on Beacon.tv as well as streaming feeds on Critical Role’s YouTube and Twitch channels on October 2nd, with the VOD available for everyone the following Monday and podcast episodes available in two parts: the first one week after the premiere, and the second on the following Tuesday.
Until next time, I’m told Beacon members will also get exclusive access to all episodes of Critical Role Cooldown for Campaign 4, where the cameras keep rolling and you get a front row seat to the cast’s post-show reactions to things that happened at the table and in-game.
