Developed by AdHoc Studio, the critically acclaimed superhero workplace comedy interactive narrative game The Superhero Dispatch Network officially celebrates its first anniversary on October 23, 2026. To thank global players for their enthusiastic support, the developers have not only released a free Deluxe Edition DLC update featuring "Storyboard Mode" and "Commentary Mode," but also launched historical low discounts across multiple platforms, inviting all new and returning "Dispatchers" back to SDN Headquarters.
The Choice of Five Million Players
One year ago, The Superhero Dispatch Network launched with its subversive superhero story and innovative dispatch gameplay. To date, over 5 million players have joined the SDN, maintaining a "Overwhelmingly Positive" rating of 97% on Steam, and winning the "Outstanding Narrative Game" award at the 2025 Steam Awards as well as three awards at the 2026 BAFTA Games Awards.
"A year ago, we didn't even know if anyone would play The Superhero Dispatch Network. Today, five million players are with us, which suggests we might have done something right. Thank you all for discussing the plot, cosplaying, and sending countless heartwarming messages to our inbox." said the AdHoc development team in their anniversary message.
Explore New Ways to See Behind the Scenes
As the highlight of this anniversary celebration, players who own the Digital Deluxe Edition can now freely update two new gameplay modes, allowing them to revisit the adventure from completely different perspectives.
Storyboard Mode: Players can experience the entire series in its original hand-drawn storyboard animation format. From the first episode to the last, you'll see the raw designs of scenes and characters before they entered 3D animation production, witnessing the transformation from sketches to the final product.
Commentary Mode: Features over 16 hours of commentary content. Players can choose between voice actor tracks or developer team tracks in the settings. In addition to famous voice actors like Aaron Paul and Laura Bailey, you'll hear exclusive insights from writers, directors, and more. Different choices will unlock different behind-the-scenes stories, making every replay feel fresh.
Players who don't yet own the Deluxe Edition can also purchase the Deluxe Edition Upgrade Pack to unlock both modes mentioned above, along with the digital artbook and all four comic issues.

To allow more players to experience the fun of being a superhero, The Superhero Dispatch Network is now offering an all-time low 20% discount across multiple platforms, including Switch and Steam.
