GODUS beta will see its first public release on September 13, when the game heads to Steam Early Access for $19.99. GODUS is being developed by 22cans and is Peter Molyneux’s reinvention of the god game genre. Molyneux is the man responsible for other god games such as Dungeon Keeper, Populous, and Black & White. He is also the one behind Theme Park, the Fable series, and 22cans’ first creation Curiosity – What’s Inside the Cube?
While Curiosity wasn’t exactly a game, GODUS will be, allowing players to take on the role of a god. In GODUS beta, players will be able to sculpt every inch of the world that they’ll look down on while a population of followers settle in and procreate. Players will control every aspect of their unique utopias and as a result, a civilization will grow throughout the land. Naturally, the more followers that believe in you, the more powerful you become.
GODUS will also offer multiplayer, allowing players to challenge other gods and their civilizations in epic multiplayer battles.
GODUS beta will be available on both PC and Mac. View a gallery of screenshots below.
