Critical Role campaign four

The fourth campaign of the Dungeons & Dragons web series Critical Role premiered on October 2, 2025. Brennan Lee Mulligan replaced Matthew Mercer as Dungeon Master, while Mercer switched to a player role. Rather than Exandria, the setting used in the previous three campaigns, the campaign is set in Mulligan's new world of Aramán. The characters' intertwined stories explore a fractured world shaped by the death of gods and the aftermath of rebellion.

With the cast expanding to thirteen players, the actual play campaign features multiple tables with the game in a West Marches format. After a four-episode 'overture' with the full cast, the players divided into three initial groups: the Soldiers, the Seekers, and the Schemers. Following the Convergence arc, the players were largely divided across two main groups: the Seekers and the Schemers.

Campaign four airs each Thursday at 7 p.m. PT on Critical Role Productions' Twitch and YouTube channels and the Beacon streaming service except for occasional hiatuses. The show went on a summer hiatus following the end of the Convergence arc in June 2026; it returned on August 27, 2026.
