The 2025 TV schedule could also be winding down as we strategy the tip of November, however Crucial Function has a giant launch on the way in which for anyone with an Amazon Prime Video subscription. The Mighty Nein debuts on the streamer on Wednesday, November 19, set in the identical world as The Legend of Vox Machina. Prime Video quickly launched the premiere streaming free earlier than the official debut on November 19, however I realized an essential lesson from when one thing related occurred forward of Vox Machina’s third season, and I’ve a sense that it’ll apply to the remainder of the The Mighty Nein‘s first season as properly.
First issues first! Whereas set in the identical world as The Legend of Vox Machina, The Mighty Nein is not a traditional spinoff and as a substitute facilities on a model new crew of characters. Viewers can anticipate a wizard, a goblin, a shipwrecked sailor, a ringmaster, a monk, and somebody who brings the chaos. Fugitives and outcasts, they need to work collectively to save lots of the realm and forestall the unraveling of actuality. So, the stakes are somewhat bit completely different from Vox Machina’s dragons!
The sequence premiere of The Mighty Nein started streaming without spending a dime on the Prime Video Youtube web page beginning at 12 a.m. PT on November 14 and remained accessible till November 16 at 11:59 p.m. PT. On the time of writing on Sunday evening, the video has accrued greater than 1.6 million views, with a remark part full of practically 5.6k feedback.
That is sufficient for me to be assured that there shall be loads of dialogue between followers on social media within the not-too-distant future, particularly since Prime Video shall be releasing episodes weekly slightly than in a single fell swoop. The weekly launch schedule labored for The Legend of Vox Machina, in any case, which is ready to return for Season 4 within the 2026 TV schedule.
And I grew to become a giant fan of The Legend of Vox Machina after I found it in the course of the hiatus between Seasons 2 and three, however that additionally taught me a helpful lesson, and I’d suggest it to different viewers planning on tuning in to The Mighty Nein as properly: keep far-off from the remark sections of the official accounts when you don’t wish to be massively spoiled.
I don’t simply imply the traditional quantity of spoilers which you could anticipate from followers who watched the newest episodes as quickly as doable and wish to focus on. The Mighty Nein relies on the second Dungeons & Dragons marketing campaign run by voice actor Matt Mercer for his associates and Crucial Function costars, with the marketing campaign working from early 2018 – mid-2021. The start, center, and finish of the unique story are already accessible on-line on a number of platforms, and the passionate pre-existing fandom doubtless may have a lot to say on-line concerning the animated sequence.
After all, based mostly on what has occurred in The Legend of Vox Machina, the Crucial Function workforce is greater than prepared to make modifications within the adaptation to an animated present, however the main twists are doubtless going to make it from desk to stream. As govt producer and solid member Travis Willingham instructed CinemaBlend about Vox Machina Season 3 final yr:
For us, a lot of our viewers has an expectation of what is coming, and it is our process to upset these expectations, and kind of redirect how the story is instructed, so that folks might know what’s coming, however the results of it, we would like it to final and have individuals marvel what’s coming from episode to episode. So if we will try this, we really feel like we have been efficient in our storytelling this time by means of.
Nonetheless, as anyone who was already spoiled on some large twists after doing a little bit of analysis to evaluate Tusk Love, I’ve to suggest that spoiler-phobes keep away from remark sections in any respect prices. I doubt that figuring out what I do know resulting from Tusk Love will taint the viewing expertise, and getting spoiled about Crucial Function’s Marketing campaign 1 had me trying ahead to how the corporate would deal with bringing spicy scenes to the small display screen, however newcomers might lose the aspect of shock for the most important twists from remark sections.
When you missed the free streaming window on YouTube, the wait to take a look at the episode isn’t an excessive amount of longer. The primary three episodes of The Mighty Nein will premiere on Wednesday, November 19 on Prime Video. It’s also possible to discover all three seasons of The Legend of Vox Machina thus far on the streamer. The primary solid consists of Matt Mercer, Travis Willingham, Laura Bailey, Marisha Ray, Ashley Johnson, Liam O’Brien, Taliesin Jaffe, and Sam Riegel.
