Dungeon Keeper 3: War for the Overworld[1] is a cancelled PC strategy game by Bullfrog Productions for Microsoft Windows. Dungeon Keeper 3 was set to be the next installment in the Dungeon Keeper franchise. Players were charged with managing evil creatures in an underground dungeon and protecting it against the stereotypical righteous and goodly adventurers that conventionally appear in role-playing video games. The series won praise from reviewers for its innovative design and devilish humor. The sequel to Dungeon Keeper, and Dungeon Keeper 2, it was set to lead the player to do battle in the surface realm of the goodly heroes. A short trailer for the game is included in Dungeon Keeper 2.[2]

A Dungeon Keeper 3 inspired game, War for the Overworld, was released in 2015. This originated as a fan endeavour to develop the third game in the franchise, with the developers moving away from the Dungeon Keeper IP in 2011.[3]
