Although Season 3 of The Legend of Vox Machina has just wrapped up on Prime Video, exciting news awaits its dedicated fanbase.
This animated adult fantasy series is based on the inaugural Dungeons & Dragons campaign from Critical Role. It features voice actors Laura Bailey, Ashley Johnson, Travis Willingham, Liam O’Brien, Matthew Mercer, Taliesin Jaffe, Sam Riegel, and Marisha Ray reprising their roles. Produced by Titmouse, known for its work on titles like Scavenger’s Reign and Star Trek: Lower Decks, the series unfolds in the imaginative world of Exandria. It follows an unexpected coalition of heroes on a quest to protect their realm from sinister forces. The show has been adeptly adapting notable arcs from Critical Role’s extensive 115-episode campaign, including key events like the Briarwood massacre and the Chroma Conclave in the first three seasons.
As Season 3 neared its end, Prime Video confirmed the renewal of The Legend of Vox Machina for a fourth season. Cast members Ray, Riegel, Jaffe, and Bailey shared the news in a video posted on X (formerly Twitter). “We hope you’ve enjoyed Season 3, but as it comes to a close, we have fantastic news to share… we’ve been greenlit for a Season 4!” announced Riegel. The cast encouraged viewers to keep watching and rewatching Seasons 1 through 3 to demonstrate their support. “Show Amazon you love us, and we can keep creating more,” Ray commented.

Like many contemporary television shows, the fate of future seasons of The Legend of Vox Machina is primarily determined by its viewership. While Amazon does not publicly share viewing figures like Netflix’s Top 10 lists, it can be inferred that the show has performed sufficiently well in recent weeks to secure a fourth installment. With Critical Role enjoying a substantial fanbase of over 2.3 million subscribers on YouTube, many of those fans would likely tune into The Legend of Vox Machina, thereby elevating its audience numbers.
Looking ahead to the premiere of Season 4, the previous three seasons have typically launched about a year apart. Seasons 1 and 2 both debuted in January 2022 and 2023, respectively, while Season 3 experienced a slight delay, likely due to the 2024 SAG-AFTRA Strike, premiering in October 2024. This trend suggests that the forthcoming season of The Legend of Vox Machina may not arrive for at least another year.
In the meantime, fans of Critical Role can also anticipate the Mighty Nein animated series, which will adapt the group’s second D&D campaign. While no release date has been confirmed for this series yet, the cast has begun voice recordings, indicating it might premiere before Season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina.
The Legend of Vox Machina Seasons 1-3 are currently available for streaming on Prime Video.
