Hasbro Entertainment is expanding its Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures channel on Amazon Freevee and Plex with three new original series: Faster, Purple Worm! Kill! Kill!, Encounter Party, and Heroes’ Feast.
Heroes’ Feast – Mondays & Wednesdays at 6PM PST and 9PM PST
Encounter Party – Tuesdays & Fridays at 6PM PST and 9PM PST
Faster, Purple Worm! Kill! Kill! – Thursdays & Saturdays at 6PM PST and 9PM PST
Heroes’ Feast will feature dishes, desserts, and cocktails from the Dungeons & Dragons Cookbook with hosts “Chief Mike” Haracz and actor Sujata Day, along with special guests such as Khary Payton, Michelle Nguyen Bradley, Jonah Ray, and Freddie Wong.
Encounter Party will follow Dungeon Master Brian David Judkins and six players, including Khary Payton and Ned Donovan, as they guide their characters through Baldur’s Gate and “into the very jaws of fate.”
Faster, Purple Worm! Kill! Kill! will be a tabletop game show with guest players such as Seth Green, Anjali Bhimani, Skeet Ulrich, Sean Gunn, Mica Burton, Patton Oswalt, and Matthew Lillard. Each episode will promise an in-depth stand-alone story with hilarious character deaths.
The move to add new original series to the Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures channel is part of a growing trend in entertainment as D&D fans see waves of films and series inspired by the role playing game. For example, the 2023 action comedy Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, starring Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, and Regé-Jean Page, grossed 8 million in theaters worldwide before landing on Prime Video on August 25. It is also available on Paramount+ and Sling TV.
The Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures channel also includes the 1980s animated series Dungeons & Dragons, Rivals of Waterdeep, High Rollers, DesiQuest, and more nostalgic shows.
Dungeons & Dragons, dubbed the World’s Greatest Roleplaying Game, has been the center of game night for almost 50 years, netting 50 million devoted fans spanning a multitude of mediums, including novels, comics, and video games.
