Production and release

Lindsay Jones, the star of RWBY, with Jordan Cwierz, co-creator of Camp Camp.

On April 1, 2016, Rooster Teeth announced Camp Camp with a trailer that aired on their website and YouTube. The series premiered on June 10, 2016, as part of Rooster Teeth's Summer of Animation promotion,[3] airing on Fridays for Rooster Teeth FIRST members and Saturdays for site members. The show was created by Jordan Cwierz and Miles Luna. The first season was extended by two episodes due to positive reception, for a total of 12 episodes in its first season. Camp Camp's composer is Benjamin Zecker, with Miles Luna writing the outlines for "The Camp Camp Theme Song Song" and "Better Than You".[2] A second season premiered on June 9, 2017,[8] with the DVD/Blu-ray combo pack of the first two seasons were released on May 22, 2018,[9] and its third season premiering on May 25.[10][11] Its fourth season was announced on May 20, 2019,[12] and premiered on the Rooster Teeth website on June 1, 2019.[13][14][15] On May 11, 2022, studio and streaming network FilmRise acquired the exclusive streaming rights for Camp Camp for its digital native content division.[16][17] On July 7, 2023, at Rooster Teeth's annual convention RTX, at which aired a special new episode of Camp Camp,[18] it was announced that Camp Camp would be returning for a fifth season that premiered on March 1, 2024.[6][19][20] On March 6, 2024, following the Camp Camp fifth season premiere, Rooster Teeth announced that the company had been shut down by Warner Bros. Discovery, with only four episodes of the fifth season of Camp Camp ultimately being completed, the last of which aired March 22, 2024.[21]

At New York Comic Con 2018, Rooster Teeth indicated potential for a Camp Camp comic book series, following a similar such adaptation of their fellow web series RWBY being published by DC Comics.[22]

Reception

Blasting News described the series like "a lot of other adult cartoons like Archer and Rick and Morty, where the events are so insane that you can't help but love them [which] deliver[s] a surprising amount of heartfelt moments", serving as "an enjoyable experience from start to finish [and providing] plenty of laughs and some charm",[23] and Bubbleblabber calling the series "a combination between South Park and Gravity Falls [and] of Rooster Teeth's top shows, due to overarching plot lines [and] a history of throwing some emotionally investing episodes into its usually lighthearted series".[24]
