During The Game Awards 2024, Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul and renowned voice actress Laura Bailey presented the trailer for Dispatch, an upcoming project from the creator and director behind Tales from the Borderlands and The Wolf Among Us. This action-strategy title with interactive film elements is set to launch on still-unconfirmed consoles and on PC via Steam in 2025.

You play as Robert Robertson, also known as Mecha Man. One day, your suit is destroyed during a battle with your greatest enemy. Now you’re forced to take a job at the superhero dispatch center, not as a hero, but as a dispatcher. Your goal is to manage a team of former supervillains while balancing office relationships and rebuilding your suit to eventually seek revenge.

Every decision you make influences the narrative, your choices shape your relationships with heroes, their loyalty, and your own path. But you must also focus on your duties: reviewing emergency cases and sending the right heroes into action. Don’t forget to upgrade their skills and unlock abilities to increase their effectiveness in the field. This time, you get to explore what it means to be a hero, whether you wear a cape or sit at an office desk.

Alongside Paul and Bailey, the voice cast of Dispatch includes Jeffrey Wright, Erin Yvette, Jacksepticeye, Moistcr1tikal, Alanah Pearce, Travis Willingham, Joel Haver, Lance Cantstopolis, Matthew Mercer, and Thot Squad. The game is developed by AdHoc Studio, founded by former Telltale Games developers.
