What it is
Overwolf is a free platform for creating and using apps alongside PC games. Its apps can display live game statistics, record video, manage mods, and provide performance information across more than 1,500 supported games. Players can use the service without signing in or creating an account. The Overwolf SDK lets developers build game overlays and desktop apps with JavaScript and HTML. Its developer suite includes real-time alerts, a Game Event API, monetization tools, performance optimization, analytics, and support. The Overwolf Appstore distributes apps for PC games, while CurseForge serves as a mod hub for Minecraft, World of Warcraft, The Sims 4, and other games. Published apps undergo manual checks for quality, malware, performance, and compliance with game-developer terms. Windows use requires Windows 10 or 11 64-bit, 350 MB of storage, .NET Framework 4.8, and at least 8 GB of RAM. Some apps may require subscriptions.
