FABLE 4 MULTIPLAYER SERIES
That means the game’s been in development for at least four years and that development possibly started just a year after series creator, Lionhead Studios, was closed.
In a recent tweet, a developer at Playground Games who is working on the game celebrated “four years of working on Fable”. As a highly-anticipated Xbox exclusive that we haven't heard all that much about in recent months, it certainly seems like the perfect time for an update.įable 4 has been in development for longer than you might have expected. There may be no E3 taking place in 2022 but there will still be an Xbox and Bethesda showcase on June 12, with news on “titles coming from Xbox Game Studios, Bethesda, and our partners around the world”.Ī runtime for the show hasn’t been confirmed just yet and Xbox hasn’t revealed exactly which games will be featured at the show either but we sincerely hope that Fable 4 will be one of the games shown during the conference. The trailer doesn't reveal a whole lot, but does suggest that the game could be set well before the later entries in the series as we don't get as much of a sense of a Victorian-style industrial revolution as we did in Fable 3's setting. Instead, it appears that Fable 4 will have a medieval fantasy setting perhaps more like the original game, with the trailer showing a sword, fairies, overgrown toadstools and greedy toads. Right now, only one Fable trailer has been released: the world premiere announcement trailer. It's unknown if it'll arrive on Xbox One consoles, since we've seen big cross-gen games like Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5, but we're not holding out hope as Microsoft hasn't confirmed anything. As an Xbox exclusive, Fable 4 will release for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC, where it'll be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one. We do, however, know the platforms we can expect Fable 4 to land on. That's backed up by the June 2022 Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase focusing on games launching "in the next twelve months," and Fable wasn't present. Even if it does show up there, it's not a lock for a release at any point this year, and there's good reason for that.At the very least, Phil Spencer hinted during an IGN podcast (opens in new tab) that we'll get it before The Elder Scrolls 6, though that game doesn't have a release date yet either and isn't expected to land sometime after Starfield's release (which has since been delayed to 2023). It's likely that the game will have some sort of showing at the publisher's showcase at E3 2021, perhaps even with gameplay. The reveal trailer is a CG tease at what's to come, featuring a faerie, a sword, and a joke that's very much in line with the franchise's sense of humor. Other than the fact that the Forza Horizon team is stretching out beyond the steering wheel, the general public knows very little about the next entry in the Fable series.

Playground is probably best known for Forza Horizon, and the last release in that series focused on driving through the stunning British countryside. The Fable revival will see a new studio take the helm, as Playground Games creates a new fantasy adventure in place of the shuttered Lionhead Studios.
