Like many viewers, I’m an enormous fan of hit Apple TV+ gaming workplace comedy Mythic Quest (particularly the primary couple of seasons). However the trailer for limited-series spinoff Aspect Quest, beneath, doesn’t precisely appear like the stuff of fantasy. It doesn’t precisely fill me with breathless anticipation. However now the present is out, so you may decide for your self.
The complete four-episode anthology collection debuts on March 26, alongside Mythic Quest‘s season 4 finale. Laborious to inform from a trailer, nevertheless it may quantity to bonus factors for super-fans of the primary present who’re unhappy to see it go on the finish of a season.
Replace: As of Wednesday, Aspect Quest now streams on Apple TV+. Opinions to date sound optimistic, although not ecstatic. The Hollywood Reporter referred to as the restricted anthology collection “a pleasing however aimless ramble by way of the Mythic Quest universe,” for instance.
Aspect Quest trailer makes restricted collection appear like bonus factors for Mythic Quest superfans
Don’t get me fallacious, I’d like it if Aspect Quest proves worthy of some days of hilarity within the wake of Mythic Quest season 4. And perhaps it can end up that manner. I typically questioned concerning the fictional sport’s legion of followers whereas watching Mythic Quest, set in and across the gaming firm’s workplace, the place we typically see the sport itself however not often the folks enjoying it.
But from the trailer, Aspect Quest has the sensation of filler. It stays to be seen if bringing the MMORPG‘s gamers out within the wider world into even a restricted spinoff will appear worthwhile.

“An growth of the Mythic Quest universe, Aspect Quest explores the lives of staff, participant and followers who’re impacted by the sport in an anthology format,” Apple TV+ stated.
Anthology format means every episode stands alone, with totally different main characters and plots. However the trailer feels random, with no story to hold its hat on. It seems to be like acquainted characters will pop up right here and there at gaming conventions and the like, or perhaps unlikely customer-support situations.
The spinoff actually brings pedigree, because it comes from the identical workforce as the unique present, and stars a number of the similar actors. Because the streamer famous, the brand new collection stars Rob McElhenney, Anna Konkle, Derek Waters, William Stanford Davis, Bria Samoné Henderson, Rome Flynn, Leonard Robinson, Gary Kraus, Annamarie Kasper, Esai Morales, Shalita Grant “and plenty of extra within the main roles throughout every installment.” So some acquainted faces and plenty of unfamiliar faces will seem.
