Outside of their recent spin-off show, Critter Hug, the crew made the announcement that Critical Role is set to make its triumphant return on July 2nd. Though exciting, COVID is still very much an issue that continues to see spikes in breakout, so the crew is looking to take additional measures to make sure that everyone is safe and healthy. 

“The health, safety, and well-being of our company and employees is the highest priority for us and we asked our staff to begin working from home to practice social distancing last week,” announced the team over at Critical Role over on their website

Dungeons & Dragons has been getting a lot of love from the media and fans alike through recent years and a lot of that mainstream spotlight can be attributed to the Critical Role cast and crew. With an incredibly loyal community and a cast that genuinely feels like family, it’s easy to see how Critical Role rose to fame, even rising to its own clothing line at Hot Topic, a TV series spin-off, and so much more.
