San Diego Comic-Con 2025 was the home of a number of Critical Role Prime Video announcements. During an SDCC panel, we finally got a release date for The Legend of Vox Machina spinoff The Mighty Nein, but The Legend of Vox Machina itself was the subject of two reveals: a 2026 release window for Season 4, and a renewal for a fifth and final season.
Alongside these announcements, the Critical Role crew revealed a new clip for The Legend of Vox Machina Season 4 in which the main characters plot a heist designed to steal a secret scroll from a heavily guarded vault inside a Cobalt archive. This is all part of the team’s bid to save the world from the apocalypse, of course.
Here’s the setup:
In Season 3, the Chroma Conclave’s path of destruction spread like wildfire while the Cinder King hunted down Vox Machina. Our lovable band of misfits ultimately saved their loved ones, Tal’Dorei, and all of Exandria, but also suffered heavy losses. Season 4 finds our heroes scattered across the globe on separate journeys, but when a cataclysmic threat befalls Exandria, they must reunite to face a foe darker than they could imagine.

Critical Role is the Dungeons & Dragons livestream sensation that now has two of its fantasy role-playing campaigns adapted into animated shows for Prime Video. The Legend of Vox Machina is based on Critical Role’s first tabletop adventure, whereas The Mighty Nein adapts Campaign 2. The Mighty Nein is set in the same world as Vox Machina (Exandria), but takes place around 20 years later, with its main cast playing different characters.
“It’s so rare for any television series to get to tell a complete story, beginning to end, exactly as it was envisioned,” said executive producers and Critical Role co-founders Sam Riegel and Travis Willingham. “We’re so grateful to our fans, the critters, our partners at Prime Video, and the original Kickstarter backers for bringing this show to life, and turning the numbskulls of Vox Machina into animation legends.”
It’s a busy time for Critical Role, which just this week confirmed it has a video game on the way.
