In a surprise turn of events, the action RPG Wayfinder is partnering with the Dungeons & Dragons podcast-turned-enterprise Critical Role for some upcoming cosmetic-only DLC - alongside the game's 1.0 release.This news comes from an announcement on the game's Steam forums, where the team dives into more about how this crossover came to be.  

Originally announced - and launched in early access - as a free-to-play online-only multiplayer game, Wayfinder shifted to a single-player game with optional co-op after losing its publisher Digital Extremes earlier this year. It's been a rocky road to launch for developer Airship Syndicate, but this Critical Role collaboration could be a good sign of things to come. The Critical Role supporter pack will launch alongside Wayfinder's 1.0 release on October 21,2024.
