That's what we call co-op!

Overlord was a quirky game, mixing humor with fantasy elements, and all from the perspective of the bad guys.  The sequel, Overlord II, is coming later this month.  The demo is up on Xbox Live now, and you can queue it up here.  No word yet on PC or PSN demos, but we expect them soon.

I know Kat is looking forward to this one, and we're all interested to see how the co-op is handled.  Hopefully, after playing the demo, all will be made clear!

I was interested in this one and didn't even know it was co-op. Wonder if the demo has co-op too?

Demo doesn't have co-op no, but it's still a really good demo imo. Can't wait for the game!

(This is a sequel through and through)

What co-op? There may be online maps like the first game? If there is co-op in the full game then Zonf and I may need to reorganise our buying stategy for the summer!

According to gamestop's website
# Two of the multiplayer games are Co-op:

* Arena Survival – Two players, both as Overlords with their own minions, help each other stay alive as they battle against wave after wave of enemies coming at them in an arena setting.
* Kill A General – Two players, both as Overlords with their own minions, go through a series of lands together on a mission to kill a Glorious Empire General.

Doesn't sound like the main campaign will be co-op, but the "Kill a General" mode also sounds like it may be it's own campaign. Also, this is from gamestop, so it may be entirely wrong.

I must say, based on the demo, this game is even better than the original.
