60-Second Summary

AdHoc Studio’s debut, Dispatch, reframes superheroes from behind a desk: you play Robert Robertson III, a powerless dispatcher managing reformed villains. The first two of eight animated episodes—rolling out two per week through Nov. 12—offer striking visuals and a notable cast (Aaron Paul, Laura Bailey, Jeffrey Wright, Travis Willingham), but sparse interaction and limited consequences. Brief missions unfold via a ’90s-style computer, with quick-time events that barely matter. Strong writing and characters stand out, yet early hours feel on rails, leaving cautious optimism; it’s available on PS5 and Steam.
