"Dispatch is pitched as a superhero workplace comedy by developer AdHoc Studio, which was founded by a group of ex-Telltale developers. You play as the excellently named Robert Robertson, a recently out-of-work superhero who's talked into reluctantly taking a 9-5 desk job that involves him dispatching other heroes."
"Gameplay is divided between interactive narrative segments that will feel familiar to anyone who played Telltale's previous titles, and the management sim-like dispatch missions. Both are very well done, but I was shocked by the quality of Dispatch's writing and animation when I played it on PS5."
"The star-studded voice cast, which features Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul, Laura Bailey and Jeffrey Wright, is bringing its A-game across the board. The game was a big hit with the wider Engadget team too, making it into our of 2025 list."
"I would assume that all nudity and explicit content will be present and correct in the Xbox version, which was highly controversial after it emerged that some of the game's content had been censored on Switch."
Dispatch, a standout narrative superhero game, will launch on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Cloud this summer. Developed by AdHoc Studio, it features Robert Robertson, a superhero turned office worker. The game combines interactive narrative segments with management sim-like dispatch missions.
