Dispatch

 
Dispatch isn’t your typical superhero game. Developed by AdHoc Studio (founded by ex-Telltale Games leads) and released episodically, Dispatch is a witty, narrative-driven adventure where you play as Robert Robertson—former hero Mecha Man—who is forced to run a superhero dispatch center after losing his powers. You’ll juggle quirky heroes, office drama, and city-wide emergencies, balancing strategy and story while trying to keep your dysfunctional team together. The game features branching choices that impact relationships, job outcomes, and the fate of your roster.

Dispatch vs. Tales from the Borderlands and L.A. Noire

Compared to Tales from the Borderlands, Dispatch uses less action but deeper strategy and resource management, with more focus on character development and city-scale consequences.
Compared to L.A. Noire, both offer branching dialogue and case-solving, but Dispatch’s tone is lighthearted and often pokes fun at superhero tropes and modern workplace drama.

Is Dispatch Worth the Call?
Dispatch is one of 2025’s most original narrative adventures, mixing smart superhero satire with management sim strategy and heartfelt drama. If you love story-driven games where choices matter and laughter is guaranteed, step up and start dispatching.
