The existence of Fable 4 has long been rumored, with reported leaks going back to June of last year. But this time, it will be produced by Playground Games, the studio that created the Forza Horizon series. However, recently it has been announced that the fourth major installment of the Fable franchise is currently in development. Unfortunately, with the cancellation of Fable Legends and the subsequent closing of series developer Lionhead Studios, it seemed as if the Fable franchise was dead in the water. Players take on the role of a custom hero in the fantastical world of Albion, where they move through the story, deciding through actions whether they are the hero Albion so desperately needs, or the villain who is going to rule over the land for all eternity. The Fable series has been a mainstay of the Microsoft console series since the days of the original Xbox.
With phenomenal releases like God of War, Spider-Man, and the remastered release of The Last of Us, Microsoft couldn’t really compete, even with games like Gears 5 and Halo.īut there may be a heavy hitter returning to the scene, and it would assuredly be an Xbox exclusive title for the upcoming Xbox Series X.
There’s no doubt that when it comes to exclusive titles, the PlayStation 4 had the Xbox One beat.
