Dispatch brings its superhero workplace comedy to Xbox on July 29th

16 July 2026 at 12:30

Indie studio AdHoc has confirmed that its choice-based adventure game, Dispatch, will launch on Xbox consoles on July 29th. The superhero workplace comedy is currently available to wishlist on the Xbox Store ahead of its arrival on the platform.

Developed and published by a team of former Telltale Games veterans, the eight-episode title follows the story of Robert Robertson III. Players step into the shoes of a former superhero who takes a job as a dispatcher for villains-turned-superheroes after losing his signature mecha suit in battle.

The game, which initially debuted in 2025 on other platforms, features a renowned voice cast including Aaron Paul, Jeffrey Wright, Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham, Seán McLoughlin, Matthew Mercer, and Alanah Pearce.

In addition to the Xbox launch, AdHoc is also rolling out new localisation options, adding text support for LATAM Spanish, Turkish, Thai, Polish, and Ukrainian. These language updates arrived on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Windows PC on July 15th, and will be included in the upcoming Xbox release.

KitGuru says: Have you already played Dispatch, or have you been waiting for it to release on the Xbox?

As AdHoc explains in a statement sent to Wccftech, "some hard requirements from Nintendo" mean that the Switch versions will not have parity with the versions of Dispatch on other platforms. The HR Violations update is out now on all platforms, and for non-Nintendo Switch players, it simply adds more ways for […]

Yesterday, during the Xbox Partner Preview March 2026 event, we learned that AdHoc Studio's beloved superhero supervisor adventure story, Dispatch, would finally be making its way to Xbox Series X/S consoles. What's more, is that like the PS5 and PC version of the game, the Xbox Series version will not be censored. But the studio is still working to find a solution for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 versions. Following Dispatch getting its Xbox Series X/S in yesterday's event, when AdHoc announced the news on its studio's X (formerly Twitter) page, unsurprisingly, some of the first comments thrown […]
