Developer AdHoc Studio will release its superhero workplace comedy game, Dispatch, on Xbox Series X|S and PC via the Microsoft Store on July 29, 2026. The launch marks the final stop on a tour that has seen the narrative title step onto almost every other platform over the course of several months.
The studio confirmed the release date this week, noting that the upcoming version will arrive with its uncensored scenes intact. For players who have been tracking the game's progress since its initial debut, the July date rounds out a remarkably staggered release timeline.
Instead of dropping everywhere at once, Dispatch has taken a scenic route to various platforms. Developed by a team of former Telltale Games staff, the narrative title first launched on PlayStation 5 and PC last October. The studio followed that debut with a release on both the Nintendo Switch and its successor, the Switch 2, in January.
This staggered rollout means the Xbox release arrives roughly nine months after the game's initial debut. Landing on the Microsoft Store on PC alongside the console launch, the title will finally be accessible to those who rely on Microsoft's digital ecosystem.
One of the key details for the upcoming Xbox version is the inclusion of uncensored scenes. AdHoc Studio confirmed these scenes would be featured in the July release, ensuring that Xbox players receive the full, unmodified version of the narrative experience.
The details
The staggered launch model is an increasingly common way for independent and mid-sized studios to manage resources across multiple platforms. By spacing out the PlayStation, Nintendo, and Xbox releases, AdHoc Studio has kept the game in the news cycle for nearly a year, turning what could have been a single launch day into a rolling series of introductions.
