Codemasters has officially confirmed that Overlord will be heading to Sony’s PlayStation 3 console later this year, in the form of Overlord: Raising Hell.

Due for release this summer, the game will ship on a single Blu-ray disc, featuring the full title originally released on Xbox 360 and PC, in addition to all downloadable content released to date.

Heavily influenced by Shigeru Miyamoto’s Pikmin series, Overlord has you unleashing chaos upon the land with legions of loyal followers known as Minions, each with their own unique strengths and weaknesses.

A statement from Codemasters reads: "Use the Minions tactically and they'll always be on hand, ready to sacrifice themselves just to save the Overlord's illustrious arse.”

The publisher has yet to cement a solid release date; stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.

    I really enjoyed this game on the 360.  Its some mindless fun and you have great control over the minions.  Its taken way too long to come to the PS3 and it's just not worth it now.  There are going to be much better games out by that time to even consider picking this one up.

    Haven't heard anything about this game until now.  This article makes it sound deliciously evil.
