It’s been years since we got a new Fable video game. I played the original game a lot on Xbox. Fable Anniversary and the first two sequels I only recently played a few years ago, but I loved them. I loved 2 so much that I was in the middle of a massive heart attack and tried playing through it. They were great for their time, but a lot has changed since then and I think it could really benefit from the changes. This time around it won’t be Lionhead Studios making the game, but Playground games, who are known for the Forza Hotizon series.
First of all modding it on PC could be great. Chicken kicker? What about Barney the Dinosaur kicker? How about raptor kicker? The possibilities are endless for what a chicken can be modded into. The visual mods for this game are going to be a game changer for the series.
Second is the upcoming cast. I love the IT Crowd, so when Richard Ayoade was in the first Fable trailer, I was excited. I wish he would have been the main character, but him being a giant could make his character even better. We never really saw giants in the original series, so their addition could be a really interesting change to the world. I am dying to know if they will be designated to one area or if there will be times a giant just is randomly walking down the road or through a town.
Finally, with Richard Ayoade coming into the series, it’s bound to take the humor to a new level. Even the trailer he appeared in was hilarious and I am hoping we see a lot more of him in the game. His humor could be a game changer and maybe it will be a more humorous game than the previous ones. Either way, it’s sure to have a lot of laugh out loud moments.
Fable is set to be released in 2025 published by Xbox Game Studios for the Xbox Series X/S and PC. It should be on Game Pass on day 1. Are you excited for the new Fable at all?
