A new listing in the New & Popular section of the Netflix application has revealed that the anime series OVERLORD will be added to the streaming platform on 14th April 2024.
At the time of writing it is unclear how many seasons of the series will be added, but we can at least expect the first season to be added in English & Japanese (with English subtitles). The series itself is based on Kugane Maruyama’s light novel, and currently has four seasons available on Crunchyroll.
About: When it is announced that the virtual reality game Yggdrasil will soon be taken offline, one person decides to stay and spend the very last moments of the game as their dark wizard avatar, Momonga (voice of Satoshi Hino). But when the time of deactivation passes and Momonga finds himself still active in the game world, with the non-player characters exhibiting personalities of their own, his true quest begins. Now he must travel this world looking for answers about what happened, and whether anyone else from the real world is still there, all the while using his magic guild to rule the world.
We’ll know more about OVERLORD’s addition to Netflix UK once it becomes available on 14th April 2024. In the meantime the series is available to watch on Crunchyroll and can be purchased on Blu-Ray in the UK via Crunchyroll.
