His new company is to be called 22 Cans. Of which we no nothing at this stage.
Via a tweet, Molyneux said "I have left the lovely amazing Microsoft and Lionhead. Now for something really amazing, scary and brave a new company called 22 Cans."
Big blow for Microsoft. While Molyneux was arguably a shadow of the former self that he was when he helmed the almighty Bullfrog, he is a real industry veteran capable of overseeing major titles for Microsoft.

Good for him.
A new company to produce broken promises and half truths.
Haha, I think Molyneux has got to be the most hated high-profile developer in the industry.
It's a pity. Bullfrog was awesome :(
The guy's definitely been a lightning rod of criticism - some fair, some probably not. I have no problem with thinking big, but he always promised big too and there's a difference between suggesting something new and setting unmet expectations over and over again. That said, his titles were often a commercial success and it will be interesting to see how a) his new studio is received and b) what effect, if any, this has on Lionhead
