Story
Overlord II picks up right where the former game left off. In it the introductory overlord is no more, and in his absence the order of things have changed dramatically. The comically evil, but still deadly gremlin-like army known as Minions are lost without a leader to focus their chaotic power for good, ill or both. Yet change in the end appears to be in the air. Sensing that something is afoot, the Minion horde has made it is way north to the town of Nordberg. Here they find a male child the likes of which has not been seen since the coming of the firstborn overlord. This child is plainly special, but time is short and he has much to learn. In recent days a new power has arisen, known as the “Glorious Empire.” Based in Roman-like legionary tactics, the power of this new enemy is being applied to take over all the relinquished territories of the old overlord, and to extinguish all the magic in the land in order to weaken all potential enemies. As the new overlord it’s your task to gain all the strength and accomplishments you can, harness the power of the Minion horde and take back what is yours.

Gameplay – Destroy or Dominate
Overlord II features a brand new corruption scheme that empowers players to enact their evil will through either domination or destruction. Play as a dominating Overlord and villages and humans will fall underneath your command with rewards and gains coming over time. Follow a detrimental path, obliterating anything that stands in your way, and you’ll become a demonic lord of chaos. The choice is yours.

Manage Your Minions
Effective control your Minions was a huge portion of Overlord, and in Overlord II all four varieties of Minions return smarter, deadlier (and funnier) and are ready to fight in huge scale battles that will see their wild pack mentality squaring up to the organized legions of the Glorious Empire. As in the former game, they’ll do anything and everything their overlord commands of them, specially now that they may run ravage and wreck buildings and scenery and each have their own distinguishing trait in combat; Browns are the main frequent use soldier units, Reds with their fire-throwing capacity are utile for long-range combat, Greens are experts at stealth maneuvers and Blues provide support and healing to other Minions. In addition, they’ve also learned a powerful new skill, how to ride. Three of the four kinds of Minions feature exclusive mounts: Browns on wolves, Greens on giant spiders that may climb walls and the Reds on salamanders. Atop their mounts these merry fighters are faster, and more inviolable than ever before.

Multiplayer Options
Along with a robust single player venture Overlord II features a wealth of multiplayer play options. Players will receive pleasure from four distinctive multiplayer campaigns in co-op and versus modes both online and offline, each with their own distinctive maps. These include:

• Co-op Modes:
  • Arena Survival – Two players, both as overlords with their own minions, help each other stay alive as they battle versus wave after wave of foes coming at them in an arena setting.
  • Kill A General – Two players, both as overlords with their own minions, go through a series of lands together on a mission to kill a Glorious Empire general.
• Versus Modes:
  • Treasure Hunt – Two overlords and their minion armies square off versus each other to gather gold and other treasure. Whichever overlord has the most treasure at the end of this timed contest wins.
  • King Of The Hill/Capture The Flag – Two overlords and their minions face each other on a battlefield with assorted hills with flags on top of them. Whoever captures the most flags at the end of this timed event is the winner. Creatures from the overlord world are also on the battlefield wreaking mayhem adding an even dandier challenge to victory.

Laughter on the Battlefield
Written by award-winning games writer, Rhianna Pratchett, Overlord II puts the laughter into slaughter and proceeds the series’ trademark humor, playing on the mischievous physical comedy of the minion’s jokes with a sprinkling of parody for good measure.
