22cans, the England-based game studio of fable And Black-and-white Creator Peter Molyneux has announced Masters of Albiona new “god game” coming to PC via Steam. A release date has not been announced.
Here is an overview of the game on the Steam page:
narrative
The story of Albion is a story of power and consequence, a rich and profound narrative set in a world of quests and moral choices.
Navigate your way through intrigue and conspiracies – kings come and go, lords shake your hand and then stab you in the back, and the people work like dogs and are treated no better.
Armed with godlike, ancient powers, you face an enemy the likes of which have not been seen for hundreds of years. Magic is returning to the hills and halls of Albion, threatening to tear down the foundations of society. Uncover the secret of the mages, defeat the enemy that lurks in the night, and defeat a sorcery that could kill us all.
Some are born with power, some attain power, and some are given great power.
