blockbuster
from Triumph
Studios gets
an extended
PLAYSTATION®3
system
edition
UNIVERSAL
CITY, Calif.
- April 24,
2008 - With
a trailer
fit for a
tyrant,
Codemasters®
today
released a
preview
video of
Overlord:
Raising
Hell,™ the
anarchic
action
adventure
title coming
this June
exclusively
for the
PLAYSTATION®3
computer
entertainment
system. The
video,
mixing CGI
and gameplay,
is now
available to
view and
download
from the
game's
all-new
despotic
domain at
www.codemasters.com/overlordraisinghell.
Marking the
Overlord's
first
appearance
on the
PLAYSTATION
3 system,
Overlord:
Raising Hell
is set in a
world of
twisted
fantasy
scenarios,
featuring
angry
dwarves,
weird elves
and messed
up zombies.
As the
dastardly
Overlord,
players must
master
control of
the Minions,
a raucous
horde of
impish
creatures.
Controlling
them is
crucial if
the Overlord
is to sweep
through the
kingdoms,
wipe out his
foes and
conquer the
entire land.
Overlord:
Raising Hell
comes to the
PLAYSTATION
3 system
with a
devilish
array of hot
new content
and
features,
including
the 'Raising
Hell'
levels,
which takes
players even
deeper into
the
Overlord's
warped world
than ever
before. In
these
hellish new
realms, a
supernatural
abyss for
each of the
game's five
kingdoms,
the undead
denizens are
on the
attack and
threatening
the
Overlord's
superiority.
There's only
one thing
for it:
assemble the
Minions,
descend into
each abyss
and embark
on a fresh
wave of
tyranny in
order to
claim the
underworld
throne.
With the
addition of
online
co-operative
pillaging,
and
split-screen
head-to-head
slaughter,
the
PLAYSTATION
3 system
edition will
also be
enhanced
with
detailed
visuals, a
top-spec
audio system
with 7.1
surround
sound and
feature
additions,
such as the
new
on-screen
mini-map.
Prepare for
a hellishly
good time
being bad
with
Overlord:
Raising
Hell, coming
this June
for the
PLAYSTATION®3
system. For

be a total
bad ass'
