It’s official! Mythic Quest is finally returning for its highly anticipated fourth season in 2025. The workplace comedy, created by Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day, and Megan Ganz, follows the team behind the biggest multiplayer video game of all time – Mythic Quest. The series returns with a two-episode premiere on Wednesday, January 29, on Apple TV+.
By that time, it will be over two years since Mythic Quest Season 3, Episode 10, “Buffalo Chicken Pizza,” premiered. That season finale brings McElhenney’s Ian Grimm and Charlotte Nicdao’s Poppy Li back to Mythic Quest. “Back together under the same fluorescent office lights,” Mythic Quest’s upcoming season will see “the reunited team” confront new challenges amongst a changing video game landscape as stars rise, egos clash, relationships bloom and everyone tries to have a little more ‘work work life’ balance,” per Apple TV+’s description.

The season stars McElhenney, Nicdao, David Hornsby, Danny Pudi, Ashly Burch, Imani Hakim, Jessie Ennis, and Naomi Ekperigin. New Mythic Quest Season 4 episodes will stream every week until the season finale on Wednesday, March 26. Once that season ends, an expansion to the Mythic Quest franchise will begin – the all-new anthology series Side Quest. All four episodes of Side Quest (f.k.a Mere Mortals) will premiere on March 26 on Apple TV+.
Variety exclusively announced the spinoff series in December 2022, sharing that the show hailed from three Mythic Quest writers. Ashly Burch (who also stars as Rachel in Mythic Quest), John Howell Harris, and Katie McElhenney created Side Quest, which “explores the lives of employees, players, and fans who are impacted by the game.” The trio also executive produces the project alongside Ganz, Rob McElhenney, David Hornsby, Day, Todd Biermann, Nick Frenkel, Michael Rotenberg, Margaret Boykin, and Genevieve Jones.

Side Quest stars McElhenney, Anna Konkle, Derek Waters, William Stanford Davis, Bria Henderson, Rome Flynn, Leonard Robinson, Gary Kraus, Annamarie Kasper, Esai Morales, Shalita Grant, and many more. Apple TV+ released first-look images of the expansion series and Mythic Quest Season 4. Among others, they feature David welcoming everyone back and a live stream of players celebrating the win of a level. Hopefully, after a two-year hiatus, Apple TV+ will release teasers and trailers to give the photos more context soon.
The streamer renewed Mythic Quest for a second and third season in October 2021. “Just like critics and audiences all over the world, we fell in love with Rob and his team’s sharp writing and full-of-heart, relatable characters that make up the world of Mythic Quest. We can’t wait for viewers to see what’s in store in the upcoming seasons of this brilliant workplace comedy,” said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+.
Mythic Quest is executive produced by Rob McElhenney and Day under their RCG banner, Rotenberg and Frenkel on behalf of 3 Arts, and Boykin, Austin Dill and Gérard Guillemot for Ubisoft Film & Television. Hornsby and Ganz also executive produce. Mythic Quest and Side Quest are produced for Apple TV+ by Lionsgate, 3 Arts Entertainment, and Ubisoft.
