Overlord Upgraded to 1250... DLC Coming Soon

Alan Pettit
Despite absolutely no word on any DLC for Overlord, the xbox.com list has been updated and upgraded to the 1250 max alloted to games. It appears from the descriptions that new maps will be available sometime soon, but why has it not been announced by Codemasters?
 
UPDATE: Apparently I'm too stupid to check our own previous news posts. This DLC was indeed announced a while ago. That announcement can be found here. However, that article states the content would be available in Novemeber, which clearly didn't pan out. Still no word on an official release date or pricing, but there will be two Paid Downloads and one Free Download.
 
Here are the new achievements:
 
Legendary Overlord
Defeat the 7th Hero in Legendary Mode 50
Extended Survivor
Last for 45 mins in a Expansion Survival Map 20
Extended Pillager
Win 25 ranked Expansion Pillage Maps 20
Extended Slayer
Win 25 ranked Expansion Slaughter matches 20
Dungeon Legend
Defeat all the Expansion Dungeon Creatures 30
Hell Raider
Conquer the Mellow Hills Abyss 20
Soulblighter
Conquer the Evernight Forest Abyss 20
Demon Master
Conquer the Heavens Peak Abyss 20
Infernal Lord
Conquer the Golden Halls Abyss 20
Lord of the Abyss
Conquer the Ruborian Desert Abyss 30

  • first post wooo!!!
  • down with first posters
  • Damn, i've been meaning to pick this game up but I haven't got around to it. Now there'll be even more to do when I do get it. :D
  • ^^Agreed..... But either way, didn't we have a news article posted about this a few months back?It was 3 different DLCs or something of that nature....don't remember from when, but i think it was about around the time Rock Band came out
  • Those achievements look right hard though. The game is hard anyway. I hope there free coz i wont be paying for those impossible achievements.
  • God damn I'm tired of new achievements on games I've already sold!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Where's the: Defeat 25 First Post Idiots - 150g achievement? I'd pay for that! If this expansion comes with an in-game map I'd buy it day one.
  • Yeah, there was a press release about this back in November. http://www.codemasters.com/press/?showarticle=11118 Guess that stuff's finally ready to come out.
  • ya, there was a press release AND a video on xbox live about. it has something to do with hell i believe.
  • Got this game a while back but never started it, new content works for me...
  • Ok just read the update, im noway paying for this shit, game developers are so fucking dumb (exept Stranglehold) Make DLC achievements easy and everyone will buy the DLC. Stranglehold was 1200 ms points but so easy i had to get it.
  • Woo - Cant wait! I hope we dont get stiffed in UK like we do for other things tho *cough* Rock Band *Cough*
  • Ah, this sucks. My friend put a 0 on my list for this game months ago and I finally just bought it but haven't played it yet. I wasn't looking forward to it in the first place, but now I gotta do 25% more work? :(
  • i don't like Overlord, it is too stiff to me.
  • So they are just adding the same achievement pics, but tagging on new descriptions? Wow spend atleast some time and effort fellas.
  • The multiplayer achievements suck. Devs need to go the road of Call of Duty 4, make the multiplayer good enough and people won't just play it for the achievements. This game should have never had any multiplayer aspect. The room wasted on that would have been better spent on an in game map, more levels, and more minions.
  • Codemasters is a horrible company they haven't been saying anything on the release date and keep saying to people who ask it'll come out next week(they've been doing this since november)
  • FIRST POST! YES!!! (IT'S A JOKE FOR YOU SLOW PEOPLE)
  • Is this game any good?
  • eh....
  • so do you have to play through this game twice or can you get all 1250 in one play through?
  • Check the guide. You have to play it twice to get the corrupt and "good" achievements. A large chunk of the achievements are also based on the multiplayer, so one playthrough of the single player won't even net you 800.
  • I loved this game but put in mind I played it over the summer when no good games were out, But the game was funny and great
  • people still play this game?
  • the game was okay, but not okay for DLC where is the cod4 dlc??
  • My arrow is the man for that comment....lol
  • I can't imagine that there are too many people still playing this. I have it still but I have not played it for months - I certainly would not pay money for more half hearted online gaming.
  • j
  • I refuse to pay 1,000+ MS points for upgraded achievements. That is just too much money.
  • I run my own 360 website and have personally asked questions about this DLC, basically its not Codemasters fault, the content has been in the hands of Microsoft for quite a while now waiting for approval. I'm getting a sense of Deja vu...remember SWOS? same situation.
  • Tad peters, the extra achievements are free but for extra content you pay, and its not just multiplayer its basically a new overlord game
  • Its On the Market Place now so you may want to update this
  • The split-screen pack is free on the market, not sure about the others. I liked this game, but it does get annoying after the first playthrough. Split-screen mode is hard, because you don't have as much room as you need, specially if you ahve a small TV.
