The episode masterfully weaves together three major storylines: romance conclusions with Blonde Blazer, Invisigal, or Malevola; team loyalty tests; and the shocking Shroud identity reveal. Earlier choices about trust, betrayal, and personal growth all converge in the finale.
“Every choice you’ve made throughout the series culminates here. Face the ultimate challenge and determine how your story ends,” according to Episode 8 official description. The episode tracks multiple variables across 100+ dialogue branches and decisions to generate distinct endings.
Combat sequences test your team’s effectiveness based on character development choices. Your romantic partner offers different support depending on relationship strength. The finale handles Mecha Man suit restoration, personal identity, and your future as a superhero.
Why These 6 Secret Endings Matter
The 6 distinct endings reward player investment throughout 8 episodes worth of storytelling. Each variation reflects genuine divergences in your approach to leadership, romance, and heroism. This isn’t cosmetic choice packaging—the endings feel dramatically different.
Your relationship status determines which characters support you during the climax. Blonde Blazer, Invisigal, and Malevola romance paths unlock exclusive dialogue and scene variations. Single endings explore your personal growth independent of romance. The game remembers which team members you cut or kept, which teammates betrayed you, and your honesty about your Mecha Man identity.
The endings also address SDN’s future, the Z-Team’s fate, and Robert’s next chapter as a superhero. Whether you become a solo Mecha Man, team leader, or something unexpected hinges on your cumulative choices across all eight episodes.
How 100+ Choices Shape Your Finale
The “100+ story choices” comes from accumulated dialogue trees, team management decisions, and major plot forks. Episode 1-2 offered choices about pursuing Shroud ruthlessly or measuring your approach. Episodes 3-4 forced brutal team decisions: cut Waterboy or sacrifice Phenomaman. Episodes 5-6 presented trust-building romance options and Astral Pulse retrieval strategies.
| Ending Variables | Impact on Finale |
|---|---|
| Romance Path Chosen | Determines intimate scenes and support during climax |
| Team Member Cuts | Affects available combat abilities and ally support |
| Mecha Man Identity Reveals | Changes team trust levels and character reactions |
| Shroud Confrontation Approach | Direct combat, negotiation, or strategic escape |
| Trust vs. Suspicion Choices | Determines which characters stand with or against you |
Episode 7’s critical choice about trusting Invisigal despite her bomb-planting past creates massive ripples in the finale. If you trusted her, she takes a bullet for Robert. If not, she works against you. Each path flows naturally from your foundation of decisions.
What to Watch For in Future Content
AdHoc Studio co-founders Nick Herman and Pierre Shorette confirmed in November 2025 they’re considering a season 2 following the smashing launch success.
- DLC episodes exploring character backstories before the main game
- Spin-off series following specific team members after the finale
- Prequel storylines about Robert’s father and the original Brave Brigade
- Cross-over potential with Critical Role merchandise and animated series deals

The game’s Metacritic score of 85/100 and 100% on OpenCritic suggest franchise potential. Telltale Games veterans at AdHoc Studio proved they could execute choice-driven storytelling at scale. Sales exceeding 1 million units demonstrate hungry audiences want more.
Did Your Choices Create the Ending You Wanted?
Dispatch succeeds where many choice-based games falter: it makes your decisions feel genuinely consequential. The 6 secret endings don’t feel like cosmetic variations. They reflect your entire playthrough approach.
Did you commit to Mandy romantically while building a ruthless team? Did you prioritize trust and loyalty over efficiency? Did you sacrifice relationships to achieve peak team performance? Episode 8 delivers your answer without judgment, only narrative consequences.
The episode rewards consistency, punishes betrayals, and acknowledges tough no-win scenarios. Robert’s final status—whether he becomes a hero, stays grounded, or discovers something entirely new—feels earned by your specific journey through the story.
