Critical Role campaign four

The fourth campaign of the Dungeons & Dragons web series Critical Role premiered on October 2, 2025. Brennan Lee Mulligan replaced Matthew Mercer as Dungeon Master, while Mercer switched to a player role. With the cast expanding to thirteen players, Mulligan will run the campaign in a West Marches format. After a four-episode 'overture' with the full cast, the players divided into three initial groups: the Soldiers, the Seekers, and the Schemers. Rather than Exandria, the setting used in the previous three campaigns, the campaign is set in Mulligan's new world of Aramán. The characters' intertwined stories explore a fractured world shaped by the death of gods and the aftermath of rebellion.
