Peter Molyneux is gearing up to release what he calls the culmination of his life’s work with Masters of Albion, a new god sim from his studio 22cans. The game is set to launch on April 22 through Steam, and alongside the announcement, a trailer landed that’s packed with eccentric touches – accents, exploding barrels, and mysterious stone circles. Normally, a fresh god game would pique mild curiosity, but with Molyneux behind it, there’s a different kind of anticipation. He’s long been a figure of both brilliance and controversy, known as much for his ambition as for promising more than his games sometimes delivered.
This will be his last project before stepping away from game development, a fact that gives the release a heightened sense of finality. Whether Masters of Albion lives up to that grand claim remains to be seen, but it’s clear Molyneux intends this to be his finale, an encapsulation of everything he’s done over the years. Given his complex legacy and the passion he pours into his ideas, many fans will be watching closely when the game arrives in just a few weeks.
