Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures have revealed that Overlord: The Sacred Kingdom will debut exclusively in cinemas on November 7.
This will be the third Overlord movie to be released; however, unlike the past two, it’ll be the first one that isn’t some sort of re-cap film. Overlord: The Sacred Kingdom will adapt the ‘Roble Holy Kingdom’ arc from the manga series, which was previously skipped in the anime adaptation and its four seasons.
Here’s the trailer for Overlord: The Sacred Kingdom, which will be available in Japanese cinemas with English subtitles and an English dub.
Once prosperous but now on the brink of ruin, The Sacred Kingdom enjoyed years of peace after construction of an enormous wall protecting them from neighbouring invasions. But, one day this comes to an end when the Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth arrives with an army of villainous demi-humans.
Fearing invasion of their own lands, the neighbouring territory of the Slane Theocracy is forced to beg their enemies at the Sorcerer Kingdom for help. Heeding the call, Momonga, now known as the Sorcerer King Ains Ooal Gown, rallies the Sorcerer Kingdom and its undead army to join the fight alongside the Sacred Kingdom and the Slane Theocracy in hopes to defeat the Demon Emperor.
