A thrilling introduction

When starting up Lord of Nazarick for the first time, players will be treated to a  gorgeous cut-scene in which Momonga is summoned into battle. Teaming up with his faithful guardian Albedo, players are handed in-game control of Momonga to swiftly deal with his overmatched opponent.

The game offers a straightforward and speedy tutorial covering the strategic combat system and stunning visual effects of Lord of Nazarick, following which, it delves into the primary storyline. It’s gratifying when a game sets clear expectations from the beginning, and Lord of Nazarick certainly does so effectively.

Enthusiasts of the OVERLORD anime can anticipate satisfaction as crucial plot points from the initial season are skillfully incorporated into Nazarick’s early instructional phases, maintaining a fast-paced narrative flow. Additionally, it softens some of the more adult-oriented scenes found in the anime (for instance, the initial meeting between Momonga and Albedo is less explicit), making it less awkward for viewers.

Spectacular visuals

It must be said that when it comes to the visuals, the developers had a perfect starting point as OVERLORD is a truly beautiful anime. However, that same advantage can also spell disaster if the visuals fail to meet the same high standards.

Luckily, the Lord of Nazarick exceeds these expectations and then some! Immersing yourself in the stunning 3D environment of this anime’s visual design, where you can explore each corner of its famous landmarks, is an enjoyable experience that will leave you eager to traverse every square inch.

Viewing beloved characters skillfully reimagined is sure to delight fans. However, the truly awe-inspiring visuals are reserved for the action scenes, particularly when a character unleashes their Ultimate Ability, creating breathtaking, dynamic results and expertly coordinated movements.

Fantastic new character additions

Given the sheer breadth of content and characters featured in OVERLORD, much has been made of the developer’s promise to regularly roll out new characters and event updates.

Initially, things seem quite favorable; just a few days following its debut, the series “Lord of Nazarick” has commenced its inaugural, time-limited summoning event. This occasion includes the presentation of a fresh version of Albedo, named “Devil in Love” Albedo.

In the world of OVERLORD, Albedo is arguably the fan favorite character, winning hearts through her extreme devotion to Momonga, a devotion that stemmed from Momonga’s playful alteration of her personality before Yggdrasil was shut down. She captivates audiences not only with her endearing first form but also with her terrifying second form, which showcases her cold-hearted, tactical, and ferocious nature.

As a member of the Ranger class and capable of dishing out substantial area-of-effect damage, “Devil in Love” Albedo is an invaluable addition to any team, hinting at exciting new characters that may follow.
