Tabletop role-players Critical Role are back with another round of questing this week as The Mighty Nein hits Prime Video.

An animated spinoff based on the trading card game, the series stars Matt Mercer and Laura Bailey alongside a group of fellow voice actors, including Ming-Na Wen, Tim McGraw, Anika Noni Rose, and Auli'i Cravalho from Moana. This new show follows the success of The Legend of Vox Machina, bringing to life Critical Role's second campaign.

This latest adventure is set decades after Vox Machina and sees the group take on the roles of a mismatched band of fugitives and outcasts as they negotiate the world of Wildemount while becoming drawn into a conspiracy between the warring Kryn Dynasty and Dwendalian Empire.
