“Mythic Quest” already has a second quest from Apple. Streaming service Apple TV+ has given an early Season 2 renewal to Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day and Megan Ganz’s video-game developer comedy, “Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet,” executives announced Sunday at the Television Critics Association press tour.
That trio must have one hell of a cheat code.
“Mythic Quest” is set to debut on Friday, Feb. 7. All nine of Season 1’s half-hour episodes will be available to stream on Apple TV+ then.
“Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet” follows a team of video game developers as they navigate the challenges of running a popular video game. In addition to McElhenney, who stars as the fictional company’s creative director, Ian Grimm, the ensemble cast also includes F. Murray Abraham, Danny Pudi, Imani Hakim, Charlotte Nicdao, David Hornsby, Ashly Burch and Jessie Ennis.
The series is executive produced by McElhenney and Day under their RCG banner; Michael Rotenberg and Nicholas Frenkel on behalf of 3Arts; and Jason Altman, Danielle Kreinik and Gérard Guillemot for Ubisoft Film & Television. Hornsby and Ganz also executive produce. The series is produced by the Lionsgate/3 Arts Entertainment venture and Ubisoft.
Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, iPod touch, Mac, select Samsung smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV and Roku devices, as well as at tv.apple.com, for $4.99 per month.
