Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet, the gamer comedy series from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia stars Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day, has finally been scheduled for its Apple TV+ premiere.

All nine episodes of the show will be available globally on Friday, February 7, 2020. The comedy follows the developers behind a fictional game that rocketed up the charts to become the most popular title ever.

Check out the only teaser we’ve seen so far:

Apple hasn’t released an official trailer for the show yet. The only video footage we’ve seen of it was when McElhenney made an appearance at Ubisoft’s E3 keynote this summer. Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet was co-created by McElhenney and Megan Ganz who also worked Lionsgate, 3 Arts Entertainment and Ubisoft to produce the series.

McElhenny himself plays a self-absorbed creative director of the game that created the fictional game Mythic Quest. Although McElhenney worked with Charlie Day on the show, Day doesn’t have a character in the series. Other cast members include Academy Award-winner F. Murray Abraham, Danny Pudi, Imani Hakim, Charlotte Nicdao, David Hornsby, Ashly Burch and Jessie Ennis.
