“The Legend of Vox Machina” Season 2 premieres January 2023 exclusively on Amazon’s Prime Video (with the exact date TBA). After saving the realm from evil and destruction at the hands of the most terrifying power couple in Exandria, in Season 2 the Vox Machina crew is faced with saving the world once again — this time, from a sinister group of dragons known as the Chroma Conclave.

Prime Video and Critical Role released a first look at the character voiced by Winkler, a gnome named Wilhand Trickfoot:

The series stars Critical Role founders and cast members Taliesin Jaffe (Percival “Percy” de Rolo), Ashley Johnson (Pike Trickfoot), Travis Willingham (Grog Strongjaw), Sam Riegel (Scanlan Shorthalt), Marisha Ray (Keyleth), Liam O’Brien (Vax’ildan) and Laura Bailey (Vex’ahlia). Matthew Mercer, Critical Role’s longtime Dungeon Master, provides the voices of additional characters. Returning guest cast in “Vox Machina” Season 2 includes Stephanie Beatriz, Indira Varma, Gina Torres, Kelly Hu and Esmé Creed-Miles.

The first season of “Vox Machina,” which has a rare 100% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, premiered on Prime Video earlier this year. Amazon Studios initially greenlit two seasons of the show after Critical Role’s record-breaking Kickstarter campaign and announced its Season 3 renewal in October.

The series is a production of Amazon Studios, Critical Role and animation studio Titmouse for Prime Video. Critical Role’s founders serve as executive producers, alongside Brandon Auman (“Star Wars: Resistance”), Chris Prynoski (“Metalocalypse”), Shannon Prynoski (“Fairfax”) and Ben Kalina (“Big Mouth”).
