Dungeon Masters, An Official Dungeons & Dragons Play-Show, Is Coming to YouTube Next Week

Critical Role: huge. Dimension 20: huge. Having clearly caught on to the fact that series in which people play role-playing games are massively popular, Wizards of the Coast is launching its own, entirely official actual-play show. Variety reports that Dungeon Masters launches next week on YouTube, with a cast of game vets and voice actors: Jasmine Bhullar (DesiQuest, Dimension 20) is the series’ Dungeon Master, and is joined by players Mayanna Berrin (Dispatch, StoryQuest), Christian Navarro (Forgotten Realms: Tears of Selune), Neil Newbon (Baldur’s Gate III) and Devora Wilde (Baldur’s Gate III).

According to Wizards of the Coast, “The first campaign arc unfolds within the world of Ravenloft, plunging viewers into a dark and atmospheric setting filled with mystery, suspense, and gothic horror.”

Mayanna Berrin is playing a grave domain cleric, while Devora Wilde is playing “a hexblood shadow sorcerer elf with things that she’s hiding from everybody.” The other stars’ characters have not been revealed. 

Dungeon Master Bhullar told Variety, “I know my goal coming into this, and to a certain extent, Wizards’ goal coming into this, is to expand this hobby that we all love.” She continued “So if somebody who’s never watched an actual play watches ours and goes and says, I want to run my own game of D&D, then I think we’ve done our jobs well.”

Variety notes that Dungeon Masters will have “a state-of-the-art set (including a dice cam)” and a score by David Arkenstone. Episodes drop weekly starting April 22 on YouTube. icon-paragraph-end
