Attention Ready Up Minions! The time has come to fall to your knees and cower before your Masters like the wretches you are. That’s right, Overlord II has landed and we’re offering you the chance to get your unworthy hands on not one but five Xbox 360 promo copies of this sadistic, despotic and hilarious sequel.
Overlord II picks up where the original left off, casting you as the Overlad, son of the first game’s sinister protagonist. It’s up to you to escape from daddy’s tyrannical shadow by summoning your minion hordes and using them to deface, destroy and enslave everything that dares to stick its nose over the horizon. There are a variety of minions for you to summon and direct, each with their own specialities and vulnerabilities, so you’ll need to use your head if you’re going to create maximum carnage with minimum losses.
The trademark humour returns, with the minions providing a constant soundtrack of gleeful cackling and off-colour quips. The developers have made an effort to take criticisms on board in order to expand and improve on the first game, so a few things are different the second time around. Triumph Studios decided that there wasn’t quite enough evil in the original and as such have adapted the ‘good vs evil’ choice system to a more ‘evil vs evil’ set of alternatives. New factions have appeared in the absence of the Overlord’s iron fist, and you will have an Empire of anti-magic users to cast your wicked spells on and a race of environmentally-friendly elves to trample like dandelions ‘neath your mighty tread. Whatever your favourite flavour of death and destruction, you’ll be sure to find enough malice and mayhem in Overlord II to satisfy your monstrous appetite. Evil always finds a way…
The Overlords of Codemasters have granted Ready Up 5 copies of Overlord II on Xbox 360 to give away!
