In 2022, the first season of The Legend of Vox Machina launched on Prime Video to huge success.
Critical Role, the web series created by friends and voice actors, had a devoted fan base. However, the Amazon series had to break through to a wider audience. And it did – the crazy animated series about a group of Dungeons & Dragons characters has caused quite a stir.

But what awaits fans in season 3? We’ve rounded up the most important information about the new episode of Amazon’s show.

The Legend of Vox Machina season 3 plot
In season 2, the continent of Tal’Dorei is attacked by a group of dragons called the Chroma Conclave. Thordak, Raishan, Umbrasyl and Vorugal destroy Emon and other cities and hunt down Vox Machina, viewing them as a threat to their conquest.
The team is desperate to find a way to defeat their fire-breathing enemies. After a long battle and many sacrifices, they finally kill one dragon, the green poison Umbrasyl. At the end of season 3, Vox Machina gains an unexpected ally. It turns out that the Keeper Yennen, the head priest of the Law Bearer in Whitestone, is a shape-shifting dragon in Raishan. She reveals herself and offers her help in defeating Thordak.
In Season 3, Vox Machina will continue their battle with the Chroma Conclave. However, they will also encounter new, evil enemies.
In the interview with Entertainment Weekly, Sam Riegel, who voices Scanlan Shorthalt, teases:
You get the feeling that there are three dragons and they are the bad guys, but that is absolutely not the case. Yes, there are three dragons and yes, they are bad guys, but they are not the only ones. There are villains, both familiar and brand new, who will emerge and continue to threaten our characters throughout the season – and possibly beyond.
As Travis Willingham, who voices Grog, revealed:
Season 3 will leave a mark. It’s going to test individual characters; it is going to test relationships, both familial and romantic; but it will also start to show the divides in this close-knit family that is really starting to feel the pressure of the world and things even beyond the realm of Exandria. This is the first season where not everything will be the same at the end as it started.
Thanks to the first trailer of the new season, we know that this time Vox Machina will be forced to descend into Hell, where they will obviously get into serious trouble with terrible monsters and demons.
Of course, Season 3 will consist of more than chases, fights and escapes. We’ll see how Keyleth’s Aramenté journey will go. We can also count on continuing the relationships between Keyleth and Vax, Percy and Vex, and Scanlan and Pike.

Will there be season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina?
So far, Amazon has not revealed whether the mercenary group will return for season 4. For information on this topic, we will have to wait at least until the premiere of the first episodes of season 3 – their viewership will determine the further fate of the series. .
However, fans don’t have to worry: everything indicates that you don’t have to leave Exandria too quickly. Another animated series based on Critical Role campaigns is currently in the works on Amazon. The mighty Nein tells the story of a group of criminals: human wizard Caleb Widogast, goblin villain Nott the Brave, human monk Beau Lionett, tiefling cleric Jester Lavorre, tiefling blood Molly Tealeaf, and barbarian Yasha Nydoorin and the half -orc warlock Fjord.
According to the makers, The Mighty Nein will be a completely different story than The Legend of Vox Machina and will come as a real surprise for fans.
