A Quick Overview of Dispatch’s Endings

Dispatch has several endings. The “best” ending involves inspiring Invisigal to be a hero and making heroic choices as Robert, ultimately forgiving Sonar/Coupe and sparing Shroud. The “bad” ending involves taking the antihero route, failing to gain Invisigal’s trust, and ultimately killing Shroud in the final fight.

Dispatch has several endings based on multiple factors. Overall, there’s a “good” (heroic) ending and a “bad” (antihero) ending based on the relationship with Invisigal and Robert’s own choices over the course of the game. However, the ending can also change depending on whether Robert romanced Blazer or Visi, and Robert’s decisions regarding Sonar or Coupe, as well as the final confrontation with Shroud.
- Below, we’ll explain the consequences and results of each ending, as well as how you can achieve them all.

Good (Hero) Ending in Dispatch

This ending is about both Robert and Invisigal—whether Robert’s choices reflected those of a hero, and whether he managed to build trust with Invisigal as a mentor. If he succeeds, Invisigal will make a heroic choice when facing off with Shroud, ultimately taking a bullet for Robert and saving his life. This is the best ending—the one where Invisigal remains on the Z-team as a true hero. To get this ending:^{[1]

At the same time, the ending also reflects his relationship with Invisigal; in this ending, Robert didn’t build trust or adequately support her. Thus, in the bad ending, Invisigal chooses to kill Shroud and embrace a life of villainy once and for all. To get this ending:^{[2]

Section 7 of 8:

Dealing with Shroud in Dispatch

Download Article

Players can kill or spare Shroud (if Invisigal gets her hero ending). Shroud is the main antagonist throughout Dispatch, and at the end of the final episode, Robert and Shroud end up face-to-face, with Shroud taking Robert’s dog, Beef, hostage. You’ll be forced to either give Shroud the Astral Pulse or give him the Pulse and the prototype; regardless, if you got Invisigal’s good ending, it’ll be up to Robert to either subdue Shroud or end him for good.
- Spare Shroud - This is the true hero ending for Robert; he’ll beat Shroud, but ultimately allow him to be taken into custody.
- Kill Shroud - This is Robert’s “antihero” choice, in which he chooses revenge and strangles Shroud to death. He’ll be suspended from work pending an investigation, but the team will still be on his side.
- Bad Invisigal ending - If Invisigal turns to villainy, you won’t have a choice between sparing or killing Shroud; Invisigal will kill him herself, take his mask, and vanish.

Players can ultimately redeem or punish either Sonar or Coupe. You’ll get the option to cut either Sonar or Coupe from the team in episode 3—and whichever character you choose will end up joining Shroud, becoming an enemy during episode 8. To have a choice when it comes to their ending, you’ll have to defeat Sonar/Coupe and stop them from destroying L.A. These are the two endings:^{[4]

- Forgiveness - If you deplete Sonar/Coupe’s health bar and defeat them in dispatches, you’ll be able to forgive them and invite them to rejoin the Z-Team.
- Arrest - If you want to punish Sonar/Coupe for their actions, you can let the police arrest them. Alternatively, if you fail to defeat Sonar/Coupe, you won’t have a choice; the police will arrest them regardless.
