Evaluation

Master of Magic launched on December 13, 2022 and received a healthy run of post-launch content: a free "Through the Myrror" update (March 9, 2023), a Halloween free update (October 25, 2023), the Rise of the Soultrapped paid DLC (August 28, 2023), and finally the Scourge of the Seas paid DLC (February 8, 2024), which was the largest release and came bundled with a substantial free update covering diplomacy improvements, water combat visuals, and UI enhancements. On May 3, 2024, MuHa Games published an explicit statement confirming that they have no plans for additional DLC or extra content, and that the studio is moving on to new projects. They noted the game will continue to receive community support, but drew a clear line under new content development. This is a direct developer statement marking the end of content additions. Since that announcement, activity has been limited to maintenance: a hotfix on March 21, 2024 and a crash-fix hotfix on April 14, 2026, consistent with the developer's stated position of ongoing community support without new content. All three paid DLC are released, no unreleased DLC exist on the store, and the developer has explicitly closed the door on further content. The game is complete as of the final DLC launch on February 8, 2024.

About this game

Master of Magic is a combination of an RPG and a strategy game, a remake of a classic from the 90s.

In Master of Magic you take up the role of one of 14 unique and diverse great wizards who compete with each other to dominate the worlds of Arcanus and Myrror.
Choose from different schools of magic and fantasy races to command, then lead your minions and expand your influence and power across the land.

Recruit and command mighty armies of elves, dragons, dwarves, orcs and many more. Support them with powerful spells. Fight tactical turn-based battles and affect the outcome with your magic.

Research new spells, engage in alchemy, perform rituals and use your arcane powers to change the world around you.
Always beware of the machinations of your rival wizards, who seek to reach your same goals. But in the end, remember: there can be only one Master of Magic.
