As a young man, I played more Evil Genius than I slept at one stage as the original cult classic, released all the way back in 2004 is one of those games I will always remember. If you loved the original, than the first ever trailer for Evil Genius 2: World Domination will give you nerd chills.
Rebellion was finally ready to show its “nefarious vision” for Evil Genius 2 to the world. Unfortunately, we didn’t see any gameplay, but you can expect base building, brainwashing devices as well as acts of infamy at the player’s disposal, as well as some awesome doomsday devices. A short description of Evil Genius 2: World Domination reads:

You can wishlist the game on Steam right now. Evil Genius 2: World Domination features include:
Cruel Constructions! – Every villain needs an island lair, so pick your paradise and put your own sinister stamp on it! Shape the internal structure of your hazardous hideaway to fit your play-style, and construct wonderfully wicked devices for your minions to put to use.
Atrocious Anti-Heroes! – Competence isn’t going to cut it when you’re running an evil operation. As you expand and train your minion workforce, you can create new specialists to help further your evil plans! Need something a little more…intimidating? Recruit powerful Henchmen that complement your play style; every mastermind needs a right hand…or several, in fact!
Dastardly Devices! – The Forces of Justice are annoyingly punctual, so supplement your brute force by researching and developing a series of trap networks! Send those do-gooders spinning with a Pinball Bumper, or put the chomp on them with the Venus Spy-Trap. While one trap is good, more is…evil-er. Combo your traps to banish intruders for good!
Nefarious Plots! – Carry out evil schemes to further your plot to build a Doomsday Device and dominate the world! Sell the British Royal Family, Kidnap the Governor of Maine, and literally BAKE ALASKA. With hundreds of potential objectives, variety is the spice of strife.
