Critical Role's Campaign 3 takes a one-week hiatus due to the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. The impact on the cast, crew, and community has necessitated the cancellation of the January 9th episode. While a return on January 16th is planned, further delays remain a possibility.

Campaign 3 is nearing its dramatic conclusion, leaving viewers on a cliffhanger after a pivotal episode. The exact episode count remaining is unknown, but the end is in sight, potentially paving the way for a new campaign utilizing Critical Role's Daggerheart TTRPG system.

The January 9th episode cancellation directly resulted from the wildfires' impact. Matt Mercer and Marisha Ray were forced to evacuate, while Dani Carr was near the fire's path but is safe. Producer Kyle Shire tragically lost his home, though he and his pets escaped unharmed. Other cast members have shared updates confirming their safety.

While a swift return is the goal, patience is requested from fans as the situation evolves. The Critical Role community is actively demonstrating its support, with the Critical Role Foundation contributing $30,000 to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund to aid those affected. This act of generosity underscores the show's core message: "Don't forget to love each other."
