Overlord 2 gets final release dates

One of the biggest game developers that apparently had decided to bypass exhibiting at E3 next month is Codemasters, despite the fact that they have a pretty impressive upcoming game line-up in 2009. This week GameSpot got word on the final release dates of one of those titles, Overlord II.

The action-RPG sequel from developer Triumph Studios has the player once again controlling a fantasy bad guy trying to take over a kingdom. The game is now due for release on June 23 for North American gamers while UK customers will have to wait until June 26 to get their copies. As we have reported before, Rhianna Pratchett returns as the writer for the sequel. She won the Writers Guild of Great Britain award for her work on the first game in the series
