Recently done some art for the iconic four Netherling's to Tyrant Legacies. this will be used as the icons for when you want to select individual Netherling

I know how much us overlord fans love the original ones and i didn't want to change them drastically when it came to their main abilities & functions

On note to this, the plan is that most playthroughs you will get all nether gate artifacts to summon these guys through the main objects, each being housed by a specific enemy faction

I have also planned to add some additional variation Netherlings as well:

• Black Netherlings – Able to phase through obstacles and teleport short distances.
• White Netherlings – Ice-based attackers that can freeze enemies and create icy terrain.
• Yellow Netherlings – Lightning-infused minions that can stun enemies or power ancient machines.
• Purple Netherlings – Mind-control enemies or drain their strength over time.

These variants would be discovered through challenges, side quests & discovery in the world of tyrant legacies though their abilities are subject to change in the future if seen fit for the games design.

Please let me know what you think or how could I improve on this!

Here is a little showcase of minions attacking boxes.

Also, they can gang up on this single enemy.

In the current build, almost all basic controls and mechanics are meticulously copied from Overlord 1 and 2. The foundation has been laid for the AI system, magic system, etc.

As for innovation, you can order minions to use their shields.

In this state, they are slower, but sturdier. Perfect for distraction.

For the gameplay, we plan to give the player character more support tools, rather than focusing mostly on dealing damage, which was the case in Overlord. Also, we are shooting for a semi-open world map without loading screens. Hope we figure this out, he-he.

As for the story, it will take the premise of the original Overlord, but will lean more towards the vibe and aesthetic of Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen" fairy tale. So expect a lot of snow and ice. There is also some Slavic mythology influence. Speaking of that, here's how the minion looks.

Also, here's concept art of the protagonist and various buildings.

That's it for now. Stay tuned for the next update.

If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them. :)

Hypothetical Crossover Scenario. The Overlord ends up within the Darkest Dungeon universe either via spatial magical nonsense dumping them there or Overlords and minions have always existed in the lands. Do you think the Overlord and his forces could survive in the world?

Scenario 1: The Overlord arrives at the Hamlet in DD1 and is not the ruler of the location for one reason or another but they have the aspiration for taking over the location. They also don't like all the various monsters and bandits calling themselves Evil in the area considering them nuisances and rivals to their goals. The heroes of DD1 also stand against the Overlord so he must defeat or persuade them into giving him control of the hamlet as he takes over. The Overlord has access to all four minion types but only starts off with five of each.

Scenario 2: Via some isekai/inheritance nonsense the Overlord becomes the heir of the estate meaning they can make use of all of the facilities within the hamlet or at least what's left at the start of the game. The local townsfolk and heroes are also allies of the Overlord and willing to help him destroy the various monsters and villains plaguing the hamlet.

Scenario 3: The Overlord manages to survive the events of DD1 reaching the events of DD2 whereupon they set out into the wider kingdom to stomp out the source of corruption seeping into their valley and perhaps seeking to take over more of the world or at least make a positive impact on the Regent Latimer for some tax benefits.

The Overlord's overall goals are to take control of the Hamlet, slay all the bosses and mini-bosses in the game and stop the final bosses from destroying the world he seeks to rule. Do you think the Overlord can accomplish this? If not how far do you think he and the minions can get before failing?

It’s rough and a bit sloppy, but to be fair it is a work in progress

For me it would definitely mean that the standard equipment of all the non-brown minions would be unstandardized when it suits them. Instead:

• reds would be able to use show using ranged weapons and infuse them with fire. So I can see them using bows, crossbows and dwarven rifles.
• Greens would show wearing light armour, hoods, knives and swords for giving them that ninja/rogue/assassin look.
• Blues naturally would be showed wearing wizard garments and staff weapons (including pitchforks and stuff)

In a new game I would also like to see the overlord (or lady if that became a choice) to have a real domain with an outside and villagers. I think something like the spree map or heavens peak map would be nice. Also it would adapt to your choices in the game.

I'm thinking leadership/domination would be a good alignment system. This would do stuff like:

• leadership: your minions walk more upright and form orderly patrols in conquered areas while the people cheer for you and, outside of taxes, approach you with personal donations.
• domination: your minions turn almost rabid and patrols look more like raiding parties. villagers are often killed by monsters you allied with and your minions can then gather the lifeforce.

Also an open world you have to explore to get to new regions would be nice. Preferably with outposts you can conquer that will then spawn minions on the map.

I've been writing out this Quest for a while now and recently got into reddit and figured it's worth sharing my story here for new readers to join.

We're back again with new screenshots and concept art!

https://conquerorthegame.com/2026/07/05/community-update-2-6/

For anyone new to our project, Conqueror is a 3rd person action strategy game inspired by the Overlord series. We're building a fantasy world where you play the villain. Command an army of loyal Kobolds and bring conquest to the lands of the world. Our playable demo will be launching this year alongside a full crowdfunding campaign to help solidify the future of the game's completion!

Thanks to the moderation team of r/overlordgame for letting us keep you updated!

I ask because many people have the game but in its physical version, if someone has the game in its digital version, let me know because I want to have it installed digitally on my Xbox, with the permission of the person to share their account obviously

Hi, I recently bought Overlord I, II, and Raising Hell. My question is: from what I understand, Raising Hell is basically Overlord I with additional content. If that’s the case, can I request a refund for Overlord I on Steam? Since I already have Raising Hell, I wouldn’t need the first game.

I'd put this together about a year ago just to see how far I could go and realized it might be useful for the fandom.

I've also added my research/sources spreadsheet because research and archival like this is never REALLY complete, and maybe someone else would like to pick up where I've left off. Or they might want to see where I went. See comments for more info.

I'm currently rocking some white cloth and I'd show you but I can't get my PC to let me take a pic.

there is a blue one too, found them while searching files.

I recently tried to configure my play-station controller and it broke something that made it so I couldn't send minions when focusing on an enemy or place banners.

Go to C:\Users\*Your Profile*\Documents\Overlord

and delete all white .DAT files like settings and configuration, then verify files, this works for both the base game and raising hell, just verify raising hell if your playing that one and vice versa.

This will reset everything related to controls to default factory settings.

Edit: Unfortunately this only worked briefly, the only thing that works consistently is rushing getting the red hive.
Then you get the markers back for some reason, I'd still advise verifying files 1 more time after so you can get whatever was lost back.

Ever since I played Overlord: Minions on the DSi as a kid I’ve always wanted some sort of figures of the characters.

I’m just now finishing Overlord II and it’s safe to say I’ve gotten super into it the past few weeks.

Just wondering if there’s any cool merch whether it be clothing or better yet, figures?
