Great news! The Fable franchise is making a triumphant return, with a brand-new game arriving in fall 2026, on Xbox Series, PS5, and PC. This long-anticipated installment, eagerly awaited for years, will once again immerse players in the charming medieval fantasy world crafted by the development studio Playground Games.
Originally scheduled for 2025, Xbox has announced in its podcast that the game's launch has been delayed to prioritize quality and support the development team. “The wait will definitely be worth it,” assures Craig Duncan, Xbox Game Studios' director. Fans are eagerly counting down the days to jump back into this saga, which continues to reveal itself in small, tantalizing glimpses.
" What does it mean to be a hero? In the imaginary world of Albion, only you can answer that question. In a world where your reputation precedes you and a dark menace lurks, your choices will change Albion forever."
The first Fable game was released in 2004, in which you played the role of a young boy, leading him to adulthood by completing quests and missions. By making the right choices, you could become the hero of this medieval land. Fable II plunged us into the Age of Enlightenment, while Fable III brought us into the Industrial Revolution.
This new title, teased by Xbox as early as July 2020, is a reboot of the beloved franchise. The trailer released on June 10, 2024, offers a glimpse of a medieval kingdom alive with its heroes, magical monsters, and beings wielding superhuman powers. The upcoming Fable game, scheduled for 2026, is expected to stay true to its roots: an action RPG where your character’s fate hinges on the choices you make as a player.
In ahumorous trailer, we discover a rich universe that hides a depth, and perhaps even an unexpected darkness...
In a new trailer released in early 2026, Fable is making waves again. The footage showcases a magical, enchanting world set in a medieval-inspired backdrop, packed with impressive detail. The game will feature an open-world environment, giving players the freedom to explore at their own pace. The protagonist is customizable, and choices will play a crucial role: every decision has consequences that impact the story, meaning a happy ending isn't guaranteed... Additionally, the game features a morality system, where your actions can influence your reputation for better or worse.
The development team promises a richly detailed world filled with side quests and lively NPCs you can interact with... The project is quite ambitious, and we're hopeful it will live up to the hype.
There's no doubt that Fable is set to be one of the biggest games of 2026. Unfortunately, the wait is still a long way off.
