Imagine the iconic team of The Invincibles working in the mundane setting of The Office, and you have Dispatch—a riotous superhero workplace comedy that just launched a fresh trailer at Fanfest. The game is set to release soon on PC and PS5. Developed by veterans from Telltale's Tales from the Borderlands and The Wolf Among Us, you take on the role of an administrator steering former supervillains-turned-heroes. From your desk job, you’ll juggle inter-office dynamics, foster team rapport, and discreetly plot your own comeback.
The chaotic story kicks off with its first two episodes on October 22, continuing with two new episodes each week until the concluding pair drops on November 12. In the meantime, the new trailer offers a thrilling glimpse of the action that awaits. When the game goes live next week, you’ll oversee emergency response logistics—assigning heroes based on their specialized abilities and peculiar personalities while handling delicate conversations and high-stakes choices that affect workplace relationships. The game injects a sharp dose of dark humor, perfect for anyone who’s endured a day job with challenging colleagues—even if none of them happened to be a giant bat.
Adding to the star power, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad lends his voice as protagonist Robert Robertson, sidelined as a dispatcher while his high-tech Mecha Man suit undergoes repairs. He’s joined by an impressive cast, including Jeffrey Wright (Westworld, The Last of Us), Laura Bailey (Uncharted, The Last of Us Part II), and Seán McLoughlin (jacksepticeye). You can already add the PC version to your wishlist on Steam.
