With a day full of Xbox news, Playground Games got in on the action with four minutes of brand-new gameplay for Fable being released.
The gameplay was posted first by Xbox CEO Asha Sharma before it was shared on YouTube as well.
A new quest is unfolding
In the trailer for the upcoming game, you find yourself heading into “the depths of Deepwood alongside Arden, a local Hero, to investigate why strange magical happenings have been troubling the people of Oakshire.”
As they journey, they “cross a threshold where the natural magic of Deepwood appears corrupted by an outside force, and they discover hints as to who or what could be responsible…”
You can check out the trailer for yourself below. Just keep in mind that it’s still a work-in-progress build. However, it was captured on PC with Ultra Graphics Settings.
As far as the game’s state, Sharma calls it a “long road” to bring Fable back to players. That said, she’s proud of the work being done by developer Playground Games.
Fable launches on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC on February 23, 2027. By the time it releases, Fable will have been in development, in some form, since 2018. While Playground Games is leading the development, support work has been done by Eidos-Montreal, Third Kind Games, and even Blizzard.
