The Legend of Vox Machina season 4 cliffhanger sets up season 5

The Legend of Vox Machina season 4 is the penultimate season before Vox Machina's adventures end in season 5. It's sad news for anyone wanting more from the Heroes of Tal'Dorei, but not too surprising for Critters who watched the original Dungeons & Dragons actual play; like it or not, The Legend of Vox Machina is in the campaign's final arc.

The cast and crew were aware that the show would end with season 5 while season 4 was being produced. During the animated adaptation’s early days, how much of Vox Machina’s story could be told wasn’t as certain as it is now, after Critical Role’s adaptations — including The Mighty Nein — became certified hits.

Originally founded by a Kickstarter campaign that was soon snatched up by Amazon, the first two seasons of The Legend of Vox Machina were guaranteed, but nobody knew what would happen beyond that.
