Millions of Players Gear Up for Epic Superhero Workplace Adventures in Dispatch
By the end of 2025, AdHoc's episodic adventure game Dispatch had already gained a massive following. The developer recently released a breakdown video showcasing some astonishing stats from the eight-episode run. As players wrapped up their heroic duties and calls answered, the numbers were staggering.
Over 52.5 million shifts were completed, and an astonishing 727 million calls were answered by the end of the season. However, one question still remains unanswered: which hero was deployed most throughout the entire campaign? The answer lies in the realm of narrative choices, where players made their favorites known. Specifically, when it comes to cutting characters from the Z-Team.
It turns out that over 2.8 million players chose to cut off Coupe, while a smaller but still significant 2.4 million opted to let Invisigal stay on. Conversely, 2.3 million fans brought in the Waterboy hero to fill a vacant spot, and an impressive 2 million went with Phenomaman, Superman-like.
On a more personal level, romance played a significant role in players' choices, as 1.9 million people pursued Invisigal, while 1 million chose Blonde Blazer. Meanwhile, over 330,000 players found themselves on the receiving end of a complicated love life, and an unfortunate 164,000 were left heartbroken with no romantic connections.
While some might be hesitant to analyze these data points due to individual episode differences, it's hard not to wonder what other insights could be gleaned from a collective perspective. For instance, how many successful calls versus failures can be attributed to the entire season? Or, which hero achieved the highest leveled stat throughout?
The numbers are clear: players have invested countless hours into Dispatch, and the results are nothing short of impressive. With over 3 million copies sold, 23 million watch hours on YouTube and Twitch, and an online phenomenon with over 55,000 content creators, it's safe to say that Dispatch has become a gaming sensation.
As AdHoc gears up for its next project โ possibly another season of the game โ fans will have to keep waiting. For now, Dispatch is available on PC and PlayStation 5, with a Nintendo Switch release planned later in January.
