We don’t even know if this game takes place in Albion, the country where the Fable trilogy took place. Given the ambiguous state of this new Fable game’s continuity, it is difficult to even speculate what the story is going to be about. “It’s like the challenge of making a new Star Wars movie-there’s stuff that everyone wants you to bring along, but then you’ve got a responsibility to that, to new places and I trust Playground has a good vision for that.” Fable story “With any kind of franchise like that, where you’ve had existing versions, there’s always that balance between what you’re going to bring forward, what still stands up, and what you want to add that’s new,” Booty explained. In an interview with The Guardian, Microsoft head of studios Matt Booty talked about the challenges of creating a new Fable title with a completely different studio. It’s entirely possible that Fable is going to pull a God of War, dropping the number but continuing as a sequel.

Xbox and Playground Games have defined the latest Fable game as a 'new beginning' for the series. At least that’s not what it’s officially called. No, the latest Fable game is not Fable 4. Industry insider Jeff Grubb stated that Fable will launch in 2023, so even if he's right, it's still at least a year away.įorza Horizon 5 is just around the corner, launching on November 9, which means that Playground Games will have all of the time to work on Fable for the next few years. Recently, game developer TonyArt took to Twitter to clarify a statement, writing that 'I can't wait for the fans to see the game once Playground is ready to show it I love what the team has done, I never confirmed a showcase soon, never said it will be on E3.' So we can probably count out Fable's appearance at E3. Recently, head Christopher Ding spoke on VGC's Off the Record podcast and stated, 'I've had few conversations with friends at Xbox Games Studios.Everwild, Perfect Dark, Fable are so far away, as in, they might even be in a new Xbox by the time these games come out.' That's pretty wild if true, but don't take it as gospel. While it's been generally quiet on the news front, we do know that Anna Megill, writer on the Control team, is joining the Fable 4 development team as a Lead Writer, which is exciting. We do know that Turn 10 is currently developing the latest Forza Motorsport game, so it's interesting to see the developer's attention turned elsewhere. It isn't too far fetched, but it's unclear where that leaves the next Forza Motorsport game. According to the LinkedIn profile of Turn 10's most senior designer and creative director, Bill Giese, Turn 10 might be assisting with the development of Fable (via VGC).
