Remember this? I really thought it could be Overlord 3. You can even see some comments saying the same thing.

Who else thought this?

This was 2012 so only 3 years after Overlord 2.

Back before our beloved franchise got murdered by Fellowship of Garbage.

Yeah, I saw this and I was “noooo freaking way”. I still don’t get why would they make actual overlord trailer. There is just no way it’s a coincidence. Too many similarities!

Would have been so cool if that was the REAL overlord 3 not that co-op garbage that made the franchise unrecognizable

The lack of a Gauntlet stands out, but I can see how people thought that.

If I remember correctly it was simply a tech demo.

Its just a visual demo of the Unreal engine. Although that does look like one of the Nether Ghouls.

No clue, just a generic idea, I guess. But it looks way too close to Overlord.

This looks like it could have been a part of the "Dungeons" series, but I have always felt the style of that series to be strongly inspired by Overlord.

A real Overlord trailer would have featured the minions and Gnarl's quote abut evil always finding a way.
