- Being bad will
soon feel ever so good again as Codemasters®
today confirmed that the Minions will return this summer, complete
with a new master, in Overlord™II,
Triumph Studios' sequel to the 1 million+ selling, delightfully
despotic, twisted fantasy action adventure.
Taking
the ‘be evil or really evil' theme to terrific new heights of
tyranny, gamers were today introduced to the new Overlord and his
powers of destruction and domination in the first Overlord
II gameplay
video, now available from www.codemasters.com/overlordII
In
Overlord II,
the new Overlord and a more powerful Minions horde take on the
Glorious Empire, an advanced Romanesque nation, in a truly epic yet
familiarly warped adventure. Ever since the events at the end of
Overlord: Raising
Hell, the Overlord
has been absent from the world and, without his firm grip on the
kingdom, the lands have being conquered by the Glorious Empire. On
the surface, the Glorious Empire is a civilisation driven by
righteous politicians and supported with a mighty military force.
However, in practice the Empire is decadent, corrupt and dangerous.
And if there's one thing the Glorious Empire hates, it's magic and
magical beings.
As
the game opens, the Empire's Inquisition is on the hunt for anyone
who has magical resonance. In the Arctic wastelands, where Yetis
roam, lies the snowy town of Nordberg. Here a young lad is singled
out by the Inquisition and accused of possessing a magical force
(what with him having strange glowing eyes and everything). However,
as he is led off, the Empire guards come under attack from a band of
strange little leathery, big-eared, yellow-eyed beasts: it's the
Minions! With a rousing cry of "Master" the devilishly charming
critters carry the boy off - they've found their new Overlord.
After
some years of intensive Minion training, players will step into the
now-adult sized boots of the Overlord. Initially it's a rag-tag
band of Minions under his command but off they go, looting,
destroying and laying waste to the lands around Nordberg, scoring
victories where they can, before setting sights on the lands at the
very heart of the Empire.
As
the Overlord's powers grow, the secrets of the Empire, and those of
his own origins, will be revealed and then it's time to go Minion
maximus on the Empire's collective ass. Players will be able to
choose how to wield the Overlord's evil forces. Do they plunder and
pillage across the lands, burn cities on a whim in wild acts of
destruction? Or do they follow a path of domination, enslaving towns
and exerting their will upon the people? Only true despots will be
able to make the ultimate choice between being a ‘destructive' or
a ‘dominating' dark lord.
"Overlord II empowers players
to enact their evil will in either a dominating or destructive way,"
explains Lennart Sas,
Creative Director, Triumph
Studios. "Play as a
‘dominating' Overlord and villages and people will fall under
your command with rewards and benefits coming over time as you have
them do your bidding. Follow a ‘destructive' route and you'll
become a demonic Lord of chaos, obliterating anything that stands in
your way. For example, if you need to take a boat from one area to
the next, are you evil enough to trigger global warming, melt the ice
caps, so that you create your own private sea to sail across? Well,
are you? It'll be fun finding out."
Prepare
to face the Glorious Empire in Overlord
II - the game
that puts the laughter into slaughter - coming this summer for the
PLAYSTATION®3
computer entertainment system, Xbox
360® video game and
entertainment system from Microsoft® and Games
