Season 2 Already? Dispatch’s Mecha Man Drops Hints — Fans Are All In
Dispatch hasn’t even hit its finale, but the buzz is already on what’s next: Aaron Paul says he’s all-in to keep suiting up as Mecha Man, telling penguinz0 he’s ready for multiple seasons.
We have not even hit the Dispatch finale yet and the conversation has already jumped to a potential Season 2. The spark: Aaron Paul says he is absolutely down to keep playing his character if AdHoc keeps the story going.
Aaron Paul wants back in
Paul dropped the good news on a recent video with Charlie/penguinz0, where the two chatted about, well, everything. Both are part of the Dispatch cast: Paul voices Robert Robertson (better known as Mecha Man), and Charlie voices Sonar. Paul sounds genuinely fond of the project and the team behind it, and he was surprisingly open about wanting to do more than one season.
"You and I got to do multiple seasons of this game... The team behind Dispatch are just, all so great, passionate about what they do. The love and care that went into these stories is truly blinding. They resonated with me when I first got the script."
A couple of things to flag here. First, he mentions 'multiple seasons' like it is already a thing. That does not equal an official renewal, but it is a strong hint at intent. Second, Paul says he was sent multiple big bundles of script pages. That suggests AdHoc mapped out a longer arc from the jump, even if they have not announced it yet.
The Telltale DNA is showing (and fans are into it)
If you have played a Telltale-style game, you know the move: leave some threads dangling at the end so the next chapter has something juicy to pull on. AdHoc leans into that here, and the audience reaction has been largely positive. People want more, and they want it now. The running joke is basically: can we be Mecha Man again already?
The star-power question
One reason fans keep buzzing is the voice cast. People are praising the performances across the board. The flip side: that kind of lineup is not cheap. Some folks are already wondering how expensive it will be to bring everyone back for another season. Based on the chatter, though, the appetite is there. A lot of players are ready to pay up the moment a second season is announced.
Where things stand
- The Dispatch finale has not dropped yet, but hype for a continuation is high.
- Aaron Paul says he is in for more, and he referenced 'multiple seasons' on penguinz0's video.
- He also mentioned getting multiple large script packets, hinting at a pre-planned longer story.
- Charlie/penguinz0 voices Sonar; Paul voices Robert Robertson, aka Mecha Man.
- AdHoc is embracing the leave-some-threads approach, very much in the Telltale tradition.
- Fans love the cast, but there is real curiosity about the cost of reassembling them for Season 2.
- No official renewal yet, but the creative team and at least one star sound ready.
I will be watching the finale to see how many doors they intentionally leave cracked open. If AdHoc pulls the trigger on more, would you jump back in? And which Dispatch character are you most eager to spend more time with?
