The expansion holds a score of 72 out of 100 on Metacritic for the PlayStation 3, and a score of 75% on GameRankings. Raising Hell was met with generally positive reviews. Back in the normal world, Gnarl and the minions mourn their loss, and Gnarl admits that he had a soft spot for this particular Overlord and considers the possibility that he might return, ending the scene with the same quote with which he ended the previous game: "Evil will always find a way", at this point revealing that the Overlord's mistress (either Rose or Velvet, though canonically Rose) is pregnant. However, the Overlord witnesses the Abyss' forces falling to their knees, as defeating their original master has made the Overlord the new God of the Abyss.
While the minions, along with the lost Jester, make it back to the normal world safely, the Overlord is stranded in the Abyss. Upon his defeat, the Forgotten God tears down his domain and the Abyss gates, hoping to kill the Overlord. Apparently, the god was trying to gain access to the normal world after having been banished by the Mother Goddess after he was caught cheating on her (it is never answered as to how he managed to break into the mortal world, but there is a cutscene at the end of the first game that shows the Jester performing an evil ritual, suggesting he was the one behind this whole plan). After breaking through a wall constructed with the pieces of a shattered Kahn the warrior (who still cries out for Jewel), the Overlord confronts the Forgotten God for a final showdown. Despite heavy resistance of its undead forces, the Overlord enters its main Labyrinth. With all four Abyss stones, the Overlord gains access to the Infernal Abyss gate in the Ruborian desert. By luring the now demented Dwarf forces, they quickly pick away at Goldo until the Abyss stone is revealed for the Overlord to take. At the Golden Hills Abyss, Goldo Golderson has been turned into a large Golden statue, encasing an Abyss stone.
The women are eventually returned to the normal world, and the Overlord kills Sir William off a second time when he tries to take the next Abyss stone for himself. To appease the women, the Overlord uses Sir William to power humiliating pedal-operated devices for domestic tasks like washing the floor or cutting grass. With it he finishes the production and burns Oberon to ash with Rollie's flamethrower, allowing access to another Abyss stone.īack at Heaven's Peak, the women have left through their Abyss gate and dominate the dimension where previous Heaven's Peak ruler Sir William the Black is being constantly burnt with the rest of his cult. Behind the set, the Overlord finds the terror, which happens to be the Dwarf king Goldo's steam roller "Rollie". In the Evernight Forest Abyss, Oberon Greenhaze and the remaining Elves are being tortured by having to watch a poor-quality reenactment of their demise at the hands of the Dwarves which is used to mock their God, the Mother Goddess, and as an excuse to kill on stage. The Overlord secures the Abyss stone, which allows him to take control of the dimension.Īt this point, Abyss gates have appeared over the rest of the land, allowing the Overlord to try to conquer the rest of the dimension. Melvin ends up rolling into a hole, there unable to eat anything but mud and earthworms. Luring him with food, the Overlord uses Melvin's torture as a method of blowing through the Abyss's defenses. In the Mellow Hills Abyss, the now fallen Halfling hero Melvin Underbelly, previously slain by the Overlord in the last game, is being punished by becoming even more gluttonous than before, constantly eating to the point of exploding, yet returning to the Abyss to restart the same process endlessly. Upon arriving, however, they end up in the "Abyss", an alternate hell version of their own lands where they are tortured or forced to work. Upon his arrival in the Mellow Hills, the peasants of Spree surround a large portal, which they believe to be a passage to Heaven. The plot takes place right after the events in the original Overlord where Gnarl reports evil energy being emitted from the Overlord's various conquered lands.
