Critical Role Officially Returns to Its Roots for New Campaign with Hololive
The details of Shattered Legends, Critical Role's new Exandria campaign featuring Hololive VTubers, have been revealed.
Critical Role and Hololive Production are coming together for a new miniseries called Shattered Legends. The six-episode show will premiere on November 13th and will be based in the world of Exandria, where Critical Role's Campaign 1: Vox Machina began. The cast features members from both entities: Critical Role's Matt Mercer and Marisha Ray, as well as Hololive's Nerissa Ravencroft, Mori Calliope, Shiori Novella, and Gigi Murin.
They will play characters in the tabletop role-playing game Daggerheart, with Mercer as the Game Master and Ray on the players' side. The adventure takes place on the Shattered Teeth archipelago, specifically on the island of Ubradar, where a mysterious sinkhole known as the Undermaw awaits. The Hololive cast members will appear using virtual avatars, while Mercer and Ray will be present in person.
The series will not only premiere on Nerissa Ravencroft's YouTube channel and Critical Role's Beacon platform but also include a promotional tour across North America, Europe, and Asia starting with a panel at Anime Frontier in Fort Worth, Texas on December 5th.
