A Little Background on The Legend of Vox Machina
In 2019, Critical Role launched a Kickstarter to produce a 22-minute animated special. They met their initial funding goal within minutes, and thanks to their passionate fanbase, the campaign continued to gain traction, raising more than $11.3 million and becoming one of the most funded Film & Video projects in Kickstarter history. The fan support allowed Critical Role to expand the special into a 10-episode season. When Amazon Studios picked up the series, it built on that record-breaking support by ordering an additional 14 episodes, bringing the total number of episodes to 24 across two seasons, which will stream exclusively on Prime Video.
Prime Video offers customers a vast collection of movies, series, and sports—all available to watch on hundreds of compatible devices. The Legend of Vox Machina is slated to launch on February 4, 2022 in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide via Amazon Prime Video!
