It looks like Bullfrog’s classic PC god game, Populous, is poised to return according to the most recent batch of ESRB ratings released.
The most recent version of the game was in 2008 on the Nintendo DS and done by XSeed and Red Star Rising.
Populous (which was awesome) is widley regarded as the first PC god-sim. Originally released in 1989 on PC, Amiga and Atari ST, it pulled in a pile of awards in 1990/91. Peter Molyneux was the lead on design for the game.
The game has been rated T for Teen by the ESRB. No release date has been announced, nor have the principals involved but considering that XSeed and Red Star Rising did the 2008 version for DS it’s a good bet they’re doing this one as well or that it will be a direct port of the original as SCEA was listed as the publisher on the ESRB entry.
