You take on the role of the eponymous Overseer who, with the help of an army of minions, must design a dungeon and build deadly traps to protect it from intruders. You can also cast powerful spells to defend your dungeon. These include fireballs, chain lightning, and skeleton raising.
Your demonic minions can build tunnels and chambers for you, but they need to be kept happy. The happier your minions are, the better your dungeon will run.
Underworld Overseer was designed from the ground up for virtual reality. Unlike the original, you can interact with the world and its creatures using your hands. Similar titles like the city builder Townsmen VR show how well this can work in VR.
Underworld Overseer will be released on October 31st, 2024 for Meta Quest and Steam.
Sadly the article makes it sound like it will be rather dumbed down with missions only taking 25 minutes and also rather short overall.
I get that they are testing the water, but why not try to port an older title that has proper missions and gameplay already?
