Next week marks the thrilling conclusion of Critical Role's Campaign 3, an epic Dungeons & Dragons saga featuring renowned voice actors like Matthew Mercer, Laura Bailey, and Travis Willingham. The finale will be a special eight-and-a-half-hour stream, set to air on February 6 at 7pm Pacific / 10pm Eastern, which translates to February 7 at 3am in the UK. Fans can catch this monumental episode on Critical Role's YouTube and Twitch channels, as well as through their membership service, Beacon.
This final episode will wrap up the journey of the adventuring party known as Bells Hells, which kicked off back in October 2021. While there's no word yet on direct spin-offs or follow-ups to their story, Critical Role has promised that more tales from the world of Exandria will continue to unfold.
"This finale for Campaign 3 marks the end of one very epic chapter of Exandrian history," said Marisha Ray, the creative director and a cast member of Critical Role. "But while we celebrate the end of this chapter, I think it’s important to know that the story continues with a simple turn of the page. I’m very excited to see what happens next in this story that remains to be written by the incredible emergent storytellers who are picking up the pen."
Despite the end of Campaign 3, Critical Role's content schedule remains packed. Just a week later, on February 14, fans can look forward to the debut of another Exandria Unlimited mini-series, featuring the first of its four episodes. Additionally, numerous other shows and streams are expected to follow.
As for what lies ahead, Critical Role has yet to announce the start date for Campaign 4. Historically, there's a gap of a few months between campaigns; for instance, the first Vox Machina series concluded in October 2017, and the Mighty Nein series began in January 2018, which ended in June 2021 before Campaign 3 started in October of the same year.
Fans won't have to wait too long for news on the next chapter, especially with Critical Role's 10-year anniversary approaching on March 12. This milestone could be the perfect occasion for an announcement, if not the launch of a brand new series.
