Overlord: Escape from Nazarick is a metroidvania coming to Steam and Switch

Popular light novel and anime series Overlord will be getting a 2D action platformer game on Steam and Switch—Overlord: Escape from Nazarick. As the name implies, players take on the role of minor villain Clementine as she attempts to escape the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Featuring a story overseen by Overlord author Kugane Maruyama, here is what the game features:

Escape the Great Tomb of Nazarick

At first, Clementine will be unarmed and, thanks to her amnesia, unable to exercise the full extent of her abilities. She will need to explore every inch of the Great Tomb of Nazarick in order to regain her arsenal of weapons and powers and use them to make her escape.

Action-Packed Parkour

Clementine’s incredible agility allows her to perform superhuman feats of parkour that will help her navigate her environment in a variety of ways.

Upgrade Weapons

Upgrade the weapons you find around the Tomb to exploit your enemies’ weaknesses and hone your favorites to perfection.

Regain Clementine’s Memories and Uncover the Truth

Clementine’s memories will be hidden throughout the various stages of the game in the form of memory fragments. Find them to unravel the many mysteries surrounding Clementine’s current predicament.

Overlord: Escape from Nazarick will release sometime in 2022. For more details, visit the game’s Steam page. The fourth season of Overlord will also be released next year, alongside an anime movie.
