Due to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, Critical Role has postponed this week's episode of Campaign 3. The impact on the cast, crew, and community has necessitated this delay. While a return to streaming on January 16th is hoped for, further postponements remain a possibility.
Campaign 3 is nearing its climactic finale, with the episode count remaining uncertain. The previous episode ended on a significant cliffhanger, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating the resolution. The conclusion of Campaign 3 is imminent, potentially followed by a new campaign utilizing the Daggerheart TTRPG system.
The January 9th episode cancellation directly resulted from the wildfires. Several cast and crew members experienced significant personal impacts. Matt Mercer and Marisha Ray were forced to evacuate, while producer Kyle Shire tragically lost his home. Others shared updates confirming their safety.
Although Critical Role aims to resume streaming on January 16th, further delays are understandable given the ongoing situation. The Critical Role community is urged to remain patient and offer support to those affected.
The Critical Role Foundation is actively demonstrating this support by contributing $30,000 to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund. This reflects the shared commitment of the cast and Critters to the motto: "Don't forget to love each other."
