War for the Overworld changes
Darkest greetings Underlords,
Subscribe to our Collections! Subscribe to the Steam Collection.
The nights grow dark and the days grow ever shorter as we head into the twilight months of 2019. It’s been a busy year for us at Brightrock Games, though we realise it’s been quiet on the news front for all of you, our valued fans, eagerly awaiting info on what’s next.
To that, we say that 2020 should be quite an exciting year for us all in which Brightrock takes the next step. We can’t wait to share what we’re cooking up with you!
In the meantime, we’re keeping the dungeon core of War for the Overworld beating with this month’s community spotlight, and our participation in the Steam Halloween Sale!
So without further ado let’s get cracking!
Halloween Sale
With the spookiest of days descending upon Steam, we’re pleased to announce that War for the Overworld and all its DLC will be on sale in this Halloween! From now until 1 November we’re running the following discounts:
War for the Overworld - Base Game - 75% Off
Underlord Edition Content - 75% Off
Heart of Gold Expansion - 65% Off
My Pet Dungeon Expansion - 40% Off
The Under Games Expansion - 20% Off
Seasonal Worker Skins - 80% Off
Given the nature of the season, we thought we’d offer a spook-tacular discount for those looking to get into the creepy spirit of this harrowing holiday, with a full 90% off on the Seasonal Worker Skins, the maximum we can offer in a Steam Sale! You can finally grab that maimed imp the Jack O’Worker, along with all his seasonal buddies, for the paranormal price of £0.40 / $0.60 / €0.60! Head on over to Steam now to grab yours!
If you’ve ever fancied getting your hands on these 4 exclusive skins then now’s the best opportunity!
Autumn Spotlight
Before we jump into our selection of community-made maps for this spotlight, we’re announcing a few changes to the format!
Firstly, as WFTO continues to ramp down with the flow of community maps, and our resources available to curate them become less, we’re changing the cadence of spotlights to once every three months, or each quarter.
This means that this quarter’s spotlight will be the Autumn (Q4) spotlight covering October, November and December. In January we’ll review the maps from the last few months and choose our favourites, and then continue for the foreseeable future!
In addition, where previously we’ve tried to select maps to match a predefined format and template, we’ll instead be more variable each quarter, selecting between 5 and 10 items from the workshop to feature, regardless of their category!
That covers our changes, so let’s get on to what you’re here for: the maps!
You can download all of our spotlighted content from the Steam Collection.

Congratulations to all the creators who have had their work featured today! We’ll be delivering your Golden Worker codes (provided you’ve not had one already!) next Monday! Keep checking the private forum attached to your featured work for your code. If you have any questions please get in touch with us directly!
As a reminder, if you have a creation, be that maps, art, cosplay or anything else creative that you think would fit our spotlight, be sure to make us aware on our Discord, forums or social media. We love seeing our fan’s creations and we’re really looking for excuses to give away this prestigious Golden Worker skin!
That covers our news today. As we said in the opening, we know things are quiet right now, but for Brightrock Games big news is on the way. However, that doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten WFTO - we’re still eager to push out some fixes to your issues in the coming months! So if you encounter any be sure that it’s in our triage queue on UserEcho, so that we can give it the due consideration.
And of course, don’t forget the Halloween Sale before this haunting season sadly comes to an end.
See you soon Underlords!
