The new Overlord game is titled Overlord: Fellowship of Evil and will launch later this year for PC, Xbox One and PS4, Codemasters has announced.
Described as a fantasy action RPG, Fellowship of Evil features a script by original game’s award-winning scriptwriter Rhianna Pratchett, and offers four-player cooperative action locally or online.
With the last true Overlord deceased, gamers take up the role of one of four Netherghūls, undead servants of the dark arts determined to bring evil back to a world.
Overlord fans will also be pleased to hear that the Minions are once again led by their master Gnarl, voiced by actor Mark Silk.
“We’ve been scheming about a new Overlord for some time” said Rob Elser, executive producer, Codemasters. “We really wanted to do something that would allow us be evil alongside our friends, instead of the normal heroics in every other game. The idea of playing as a team of bad guys commanding Minions to do our utmost bidding, while also causing chaos for each other, just really made us smile. And as you know, an Overlord game never takes itself too seriously.”
The game will launch digitally priced £14.99.
