On March 12, the critical role celebrates the tenth anniversary of its founding – a coronation for its rise to the superiority of Nerdworld.

Now, he told four founders – Liam O’Brien, Marsha Ray, Wissam Regel, and Tavis Wellingham – Business Insider, ready to launch the road map for 2025 and beyond.

Business’ has made eight founders a long way from a group of obsessive who broadcast their home “Dungeons & Dragons” on Twitch. In 2022, CR funded seed financing for more than $ 11.3 million to create an animated chain-a project to turn into one, but two Amazon-backed animated series on the main video.

CR Business has multiple sectors, including Darrington Press, gameplay arm; Metapigeon, production wing; The critical role institution, charitable initiative. CR and their peers now sell the arenas and strike the way for global tours.

“We have been planning, cultivating and caring for the Earth for a long time – I think we are only looking to watch the garden growing. “

In 2025, the team expands in five areas.

1. Decisive video game

CR CEO, CR, said the crew is “working hard” in a video – a new CR area. BI will not tell the name yet, but he plans to announce it “on any day.”

Currently, this gaming project is called “interactive menu”. He says he will expand in Exandria, the world of games created by Matthew Mercer, a master in the long game and the chief creative official, for more than a decade.

“They will actually get their hands and control the results of the story, and change what may be possible from not only some of their favorite characters, but the new offers in the world of Xandria,” Wellingham said.

2. Back to broadcast and more live offers

The tenth anniversary of the company is compatible with the February of the third “decisive” campaign.

But the founders will return to the broadcast soon. Meanwhile, Ray in Regel will take over Mercer seat as a game for a new program.

CR also strikes multiple cities in the United States and two arenas in Australia for live shows this year. Riegel Bi told the crew now discovering some dream sites – and they like to play in places in Canada, Europe and South America.

The praise of the CR peers in “Dimense 20”-who just in front of the Madison Square park that was sold-said what they are doing is no longer specialized.

Ray said: “It is not logical, frankly, that” D&D “offers the arenas played by Taylor Swift.” “This method has grown, and it does not seem to slow down soon.”

Ray said that the company is planning to announce the 2026 direct offer list in the spring.

3. The official Daggerheart version

The founders, “Daggerheart”, a game on the table for more than two years, said, to be launched on May 20, accompanied by CR programs and “new shows”.

“Daggerheart”, “Daggerheart” is designed like an answer to “D&D”-the game that made the team famous.

Ray Bi told Mercer and Speenser Starke, one of the “Daggerheart” designers, who already have “years” ideas for the content of the game and expansion in the business.

Wellingham says the company’s press department at DARRINGTON is also cooperating with gaming developers to make more products.

“We were players throughout our lives,” O’Brien said. “My hope for Darrington is that it becomes synonymous with great games and that it is attractive to the best game makers.”

4. Books and television

Tell O’Brien, who published CR, told Bi Bi that he was excited about the team’s list of books, including “Der Katzenprinz”, a book for children. In cooperation with Penguin Random House, CR also released the short story collection “Vox Machina – Stories Untold” this month.

Riegel Bi told the CR expansion that means ideas outside its land “somewhere inside our octopus for a company” – and for it, this section is TV and films.

Regel said Opion is developing an idea of ​​a TV program, and that Ray is developing an idea for a television program and a graphic novel.

“They are already in active development in different stages,” said Regel.

5. More animation

Riegel-a two-winning audio-winning audio manager-told the thick team of two seasons of animation in partnership with Prime Video. This is the fourth season of “The Legend of Vox Machina” and the first season of “Mighty Nein” – both of which depend on the “D&D” crews.

Eighth workers, whose start as audio actors play their own characters.

“Sometimes in the same session, we will go to the studio and record some of the animation series and others for others, which is a little frightening to keep it straight in our heads,” said Regel.

In business: “Experimental offers”

The long -term internal joke between the founders and Fandom is the idea of ​​a “critical role”, similar to the Disney world. The crew has taken this idea so far they made shirts celebrating the name with the name on it.

“We say it’s the most dangerous thing in the world to say things loudly in CR because it might be fulfilled,” said Wellingham.

But Wellingham said the crew was exploring the possibility of “experimental offers” on the road.

Now, they only need “appropriate partners” and a good timing.
