What is Unicorn Overlord?
Unicorn Overlord is a Strategy RPG developed by Vanillaware and published by ATLUS. It launched on March 8, 2024 for PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X|S, and there is no PC or Steam version. The campaign spans five nations and a roster of more than 60 recruitable characters.
ATLUS describes the game as combining tactical RPG play with overworld exploration, and that split is what the questions here follow: who to recruit and how to build a unit on one side, what to do in the field on the other. This wiki is organised around those questions rather than around news, because a finished single-player RPG gets searched for answers rather than for updates.
That shapes how every page is written. Sources are named and dated, claims that come from players stay labelled as community reports, and where the captured material does not settle a question the page says so instead of guessing. For an outside view of the game itself, review aggregates read 86 Metascore from 42 critic reviews and 8.4 User Score from 605 ratings when they were observed on 2026-09-26; both figures drift over time.
