The forces of Nazarick find themselves in a whole new world! Valkyrie Connect will have a crossover event with the Overlord light novel/anime series.
This special collaboration will start on 1st February 2021. For a limited time, characters from Overlord will be obtainable. Based on the Japanese version’s collaboration which took place earlier, these characters are:
- Ainz
- Albedo
- Demiurge
- Shalltear
- Narberal
- Evileye
Note that some of them, like Albedo and Evileye, might come in different variants. In addition, players can also challenge Evileye during the event, in which she appears as a raid boss.
To hype up the Overlord crossover event, Valkyrie Connect launched a social media campaign on Facebook. Players will receive rewards based on the amount of engagement garnered by this Facebook post. Players can obtain a maximum of 1500 stamina and 1000 diamonds once the post reaches enough likes and shares. Currently, this social media campaign is ongoing until 1st February 2021.
Written by Kagune Maruyama, Overlord tells the story of Suzuki Satoru who plays the popular online game YGGDRASIL. On the last day of its service, Satoru, in his in-game avatar, Momonga, decides to stay in the game until the servers shut down. However, he then realises that instead of being forcefully logged out, he finds himself trapped in his skeleton avatar and transported to a different world, together with the NPCs of his guild.
