Eurogamer Wertung: 8/10
Overlord, the latest and largest of the Mass Effect DLC packs, is a mixed bag in the best possible way. It's a medium-sized adventure that never lets one gameplay element dominate for too long, leavening the expected duck-and-cover combat with openworld exploration and a dash of environmental puzzling, all wrapped up in a story that builds to a satisfying and pathos-heavy finale. It is almost exactly what you want from a low-priced downloadable add-on.

IGN Wertung: 9/10
G4tv.com WertungThe best part of Overlord is how fantastic the gameplay is. There's a fair bit of combat and a few snippets of that award-winning dialogue, but it's the new features that steal the show. A vehicle called the Hammerhead is here -- taking the place of the Mako, and trumping it in every way. There are also a few puzzles to solve and BioWare even manages to squeeze in a bit of light platforming. The climax at the end, which I won't spoil here, will have you in a tizzy.
The Mass Effect universe is full of great stories, so it's no surprise the Overlord storyline is handled wonderfully and in concert with the action. There are quite a few times when you do not have direct control of what's going on, as if the VI is playing with you and it's exhilirating. Even more so, Overlord ends up a bit frightening and the gameplay startled me a few times during the course of play.
