AdHoc Studio has confirmed that Dispatch, its superhero workplace comedy, is heading to Xbox Series X/S, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Cloud in summer 2026, and unlike its Nintendo Switch version, the Xbox release will carry zero content cuts.
The announcement dropped during the Xbox Partner Preview showcase, where AdHoc officially revealed the game's Microsoft platform debut. But the headline wasn't just the port. The key here is that AdHoc went out of its way to clarify that the Xbox version won't be subject to the same content restrictions that affected the Nintendo Switch release.
What the Switch version changed, and why Xbox is different
When Dispatch launched on Nintendo Switch, AdHoc had to make content modifications to meet platform requirements. The details of exactly what was altered haven't been spelled out in full, but the Dispatch Wiki on Fandom notes the game was censored on Switch due to platform-specific constraints.
Xbox has different content policies, and AdHoc is taking full advantage of that. The studio's confirmation that the Xbox version ships uncensored means players on Microsoft's platform will get the game as originally intended, not a trimmed-down edition.
For a game built around adult workplace dynamics and superhero absurdity, that distinction matters. Dispatch leans into its mature comedic tone, and content cuts on Switch likely affected some of that edge.
Summer 2026 targets three Xbox platforms at once
According to full Xbox release details confirmed by AdHoc, the launch covers Xbox Series X/S, Xbox on PC, and Xbox Cloud simultaneously. That's a broad rollout, giving players flexibility in how they access the game whether they're on console, desktop, or streaming.

The Xbox release is currently targeting summer 2026. No specific date has been confirmed beyond that window.
The Xbox Cloud inclusion is worth noting for players who want to try Dispatch without committing to a download. It also signals that AdHoc is treating this as a proper platform launch, not a quiet port.
AdHoc's track record with Dispatch
Dispatch already made its way to Nintendo Switch 1 and Switch 2 back in January 2026, so the team has platform porting experience under its belt. The Xbox rollout builds on that momentum, and the uncensored confirmation suggests AdHoc is being deliberate about how the game lands on each platform.
The studio built Dispatch as a superhero workplace comedy with a specific tonal identity. Keeping that intact on Xbox, rather than adapting it to fit a different set of platform rules, is the version most players who've been following the game since its original release will want to experience.
