A brand-new release date trailer showcases the game's unique blend of cosy creativity by day and brutal survival by night. Built by a team that includes legends of the industry, Mark Healey, Russell Shaw, Iain Wright and Kareem Ettouney, who were key in developing Dungeon Keeper, Black & White, and Fable, Masters of Albion reimagines the god game for today. Blending strategy, simulation, town management, and real-time defense, the game gives players extraordinary freedom to play the game the way they want to play it. Taking inspiration from some of Peter's classic titles, Masters of Albion is a return to form, blending gameplay mechanics from multiple genres, strategy with simulation, town management with defense, to reinvigorate the god game, and give players the power and freedom to create. Or destroy… Said Peter Molyneux:Masters of Albion is the culmination of my life's work, a game that owes so much to titles like Dungeon Keeper, Black & White, and Fable. It's a totally unique game that we hope will delight players, a game that brings God Games into the modern gaming landscape and puts the genre firmly back on the map.Albion, a land shaped by the hands of heroes, is at a great turning point in its history. Its lords and luminaries have pulled Albion's society into a new age of manufacturing and production, a golden era, an industrial revolution. But behind this modernization lurks a painful past of magic and mayhem, one that threatens to drag Albion back into a dark age of mysticism. Shape the world from above as a god or step directly into it by possessing heroes, workers, animals and more.
