to update: It was announced by Peter Molyneux and 22cans legacyThe game, which was revealed in 2019, will use blockchain technology – a fact that certainly rules out any version of the Switch, as previously planned.
Here are some highlights from the Gala Games blog post:
Legacy est le rêve d’un entrepreneur créatif devenu réalité, une opportunité pour les joueurs de créer leur propre entreprise, en concevant leurs propres produits à partir d’un vaste éventail de possibilitén’le un commercial possibilitén’s empire like never before !
Legacy is a game that takes advantage of player ownership, game to win, loan to win, highly functional NFTs, and a truly unique community economy…and that’s just the beginning.
Legacy is here to push the boundaries of blockchain gaming beyond your wildest dreams.
The creative genius of Peter Molyneux, creator of the Game of Gods genre (among many others), along with 22 pieces, now joins the gaming expertise of Eric Schermayer and Gala in order to put Legacy at the forefront of blockchain gaming.

original story [Mon 11th Feb, 2019 12:15 GMT]: A few days ago, we posted an interview with Peter Molyneux regarding his next game, Legacy, and his desire to bring it to the Switch, the console he loves. Now we can offer you the first screenshots of the game, which Molino himself says is an intentional return to his first video game, Businessman, who only sold two copies (one apparently bought by his mother).
In Legacy, you run a business and you can build just about anything. Inspired by Molino’s father, who spent hours in his workshop creating all sorts of things, the game puts you in the role of an inventor and handyman who starts making unique products in their garage and sells them to the public; Make enough best-selling items and you’ll transcend your humble origins and turn your business into a massive global corporation, a development that comes with added stresses – like building factories and hiring workers. You will then face issues such as dealing with your growing workforce and balancing profitability with ethical concerns.
Although the platforms have not been officially announced, it is believed that Legacy will initially be available on PC and smart devices. Molyneux’s affinity for the Switch means that Nintendo players may also have a chance to play it in the future.
Red Bull Gaming has taken an in-depth look at Legacy as part of its excellent short documentary series Levels, six films each dealing with a different software company and its approach to making games. We’ve included a link below, but be warned that it contains vulgar language. Let us know what you think of the game so far and if you’d like to try it out on the Switch.
