Who knew that a workplace comedy about creating an online game would be so brilliant? Fans just can't get enough of Mythic Quest, so much so, that Season 4 will soon be coming to a tv near you.
Co-written, created and starring Rob McElhenney, Mythic Quest follows a group of brilliant but quirky colleagues who, between them, must get a game expansion to market.
But when personalities clash and nothing about the game design is straightforward, the job of getting Raven's Banquet live becomes ever more difficult.
Can our favourite game creators make it work?
So far we have followed the evolution of Mythic Quest through three seasons of the hit show. Now the big question is – Mythic Quest Season 4, when is it coming to Apple TV???
Mythic Quest Season 4 – Apple TV+ Release Date
With three successful seasons on their hands, it didn't take Apple TV long to renew the comedy for a fourth season.
With the first season dropping in 2020, the second season in 2021, and the third in November 2022, Mythic Quest Season 4 will air in 2023.
No specific date has yet been announced, but we do know that Apple TV+ renewed the show for a fourth season in 2021. Like previous seasons, the 10 episodes will drop weekly.
Of course, as soon as we have a firm date, we will update you!
Mythic Quest Season 1 Recap
This is our first introduction to the creative genius behind the game, Ian Grimm. A legend in his own mind, Ian is a shallow, self-obsessed boss who never gives a second thought to those around him.
Except for Poppy. Poppy is the lead engineer who brings Ian's creative visions to life. But the biggest obstacle in Poppy's life is Ian. Despite their contact clashes and bickering, the duo make a formidable team, they just need to find a way to work together.
With the deadline for the launch of Raven's Banquet drawing ever closer, can the team get the job done?
If you've watched the show, then you know that they do, and Ian even makes Poppy co-creator heading into season two.
Mythic Quest Season 2 Recap
Two bonus episodes slot in between seasons one and two with the Pandemic episode being particularly brilliant!!
When we return to the workplace, a lot has happened. The team need to come up with a title and story for the new expansion. Realising they can't really work together, Ian and Poppy agree to work on half each.
In the midst of it all going wrong, David finds himself back on the dating scene, Jo becomes Brad's new assistant, and Brad's even more ruthless brother shows up to buy the company.
We even get a glimpse into the life of CW through two flashback episodes which tie his character into the season.
By the end of the second season, Ian and Poppy realise that their work on Mythic Quest is done. They leave to start another game from scratch, taking us into season three.
Mythic Quest Season 3 Recap
Ian and Poppy have moved on to work on Poppy's new game at their new company, GrimPop. However, the road to gaming success never runs smoothly for these two.
Despite an overwhelmingly lucrative offer to buy their game, the duo turn down over $60m, a decision they come to regret.
By the end of the season, they have burnt their bridges in the industry. With few options left on the table, decide to return to Mythic Quest.
The season includes another superb episode, Sarian, written by Katie McElhenney, which delves a little into the childhood of the two leads and how they met.
Mythic Quest Season 4 – What Happens?
Poppy's game, PlayPen, is at a standstill at GrimPop. David is at a loss for another expansion idea at Mythic Quest. So naturally, what will save them all is using PlayPen as the next Mythic Quest expansion.
However, Dana has decided to form her own company taking Brad and Jo with her so a lot of competition is on the horizon.
Who will get their game to market faster? Find out in Mythic Quest season 4.
Will Ian And Poppy Ever Get Together In Mythic Quest?
Fans of Ian and Poppy will have undoubtedly picked up on the ‘I love you, you love me' speech from Ian in the season 3 finale but don't expect it to go any further.
These two are best friends and nothing more. Plus, the creators wrote in the show's bible that, under no circumstances can Ian Grimm and Poppy Li have a romantic relationship or fall in love with one another.
The central core of this series is that a man and a woman can both be best friends, with zero romance. And that's the way it's going to stay.
Mythic Quest Season 4 Cast
Last season F. Murray Abraham, who played head writer C.W. Longbottom, did not return. Instead, Joe Manganiello joined the cast for a couple of episodes.
We don't yet if there are any more changes coming down the pipeline but we do know that show favourites Rob McElhenney (Always Sunny in Philadelphia) as Ian Grimm, Charlotte Nicdao as Poppy Li, Danny Pudi as Brad Bakshi and David Hornsby as David Brittlesbee will all be back.
Also returning are Jessie Ennis as Jo, Ashly Burch as Rachel and Imani Hakim as Dana and Naomi Ekperigin as Carol.
