A surprise early look at gameplay from the next Fable installment dropped during the Official Xbox Podcast. The footage offers glimpses of diverse game environments, the combat mechanics, a variety of enemies, and a brief cutscene. Even the legendary chicken kick makes a return!
Previously, the head of Xbox Game Studios announced a delay for Fable, pushing its release from 2025 to 2026. The reason given was the need for further polishing and refinement.
Announced on July 23, 2020, the reboot of this beloved franchise has remained shrouded in secrecy. Three years later, it's become apparent that Fable is still in its early development phases.
The involvement of Eidos Montreal alongside main developer Playground Games, coupled with the prolonged absence of polished gameplay footage, suggests the game faces considerable challenges.
