Walnut Creek, Calif. (Aug. 22, 2024) – Maximum Entertainment and developer Brimstone today, during Gamescom, revealed the first full look at the highly anticipated chaotic open-world city builder, Overthrown. Today’s trailer showcases the wild antics players can expect once they get ahold of the powerful crown that allows them to take charge of their kingdom: https://youtu.be/KjuZ2mKQlFs

Pick up and throw anything – small objects like logs to massive, towering pines – to build and maintain your land. Even hurl your very own citizens. Construct and manage your territory either alone in single-player mode or with friends in up to six-player co-op. 

Harness the power of a magical crown to defend townsfolk from bandits and mutants. Build, gather resources, explore, and farm to turn a fledgling state into a commanding, self-sustaining community. Grab your friends, don your crown and prepare to take your land from meager to mighty.

Overthrown will launch this fall into Steam Early Access and Xbox Game Pass via Game Preview on console and PC and will later release into 1.0 across Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5. Wishlist Overthrown on Steam today: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1133500/Overthrown/

Gamescom attendees will have the opportunity to experience Overthrown for the very first time on the show floor in the Indie Arena Booth or with Microsoft.
