About this game
Developed by Triumph Studios and published by Codemasters.
In Overlord, you'll find out just what kind of leader you are and what type of impact you'd leave as your legacy to the people. Will you be mesmerized by power?
Yes, Master!
Perhaps one of the biggest temptations is the horde of evil minions at your disposal. One word and they'll smash, destroy, kill, and intimidate!
More Power!
As an Overlord, you'll get access to an incredible amount of power, such as the ability to set enemies on fire and force them to cower to you! Through the loot you find on the battlefield, you'll craft even more powerful weapons and armor to become stronger!
Bwahaha!
The unique story in Overlord combines impish humour with twisted evil bidding, opening the way to an entertaining journey for all those with fantasies of conquering the world!
Seven, six, five, four...
Defeat the seven heroes from all around the world that are trying their best to stop you and your evil plans. Watch as the counter goes down and your power up!
Steam Deck
An all-mighty lord doesn't have to be stuck to a desk and chair! Take your evil plans with you, as Overlord is playable on the Steam Deck.

IGN
80 / 100"The evil, yet light-hearted, humor and richly detailed world combine for a game that is worth diving into."
