📖 Walkthrough & Progress
Do choices matter in Dispatch?
Yes! Choices significantly impact story outcomes, character relationships, and even episode endings. Major decisions can affect which heroes trust you, civilian safety, and story branches in future episodes. See our complete choices guide for all outcomes.
How long does it take to complete Dispatch?
Each episode takes 1.5-2 hours, so the full 8-episode season is approximately12-16 hours for a single playthrough. Multiple playthroughs to see different endings can take 30-40+ hours. Achievement hunting adds 5-10 hours.
