Since the cancellation of Fable: Legends, a lot of these rumors have gone into overdrive.Ī warning: None of these rumors have been confirmed, so take them all with a big grain of salt, but many of them, like #25 and #19, are no-brainers.įable has always had one major thing setting it apart from other games of its genre: its humor. What I've put together is a list of the wishes that have been flying around over the last half year. Whether this will officially be Fable 4, a reboot, a remake, or some kind of spin-off, is all unclear. While no official announcement has been made, there are rumblings all over the internet about a new Fable being in development.

However, in the last few months, rumors have been swirling about a long-awaited return to form for the oddball, extremely British franchise. With the recent closure of Fable developer Lionhead Games, one of the dearly departed studios from the late-period PC market of the 90s and made up of many castoffs from Theme Hospital and Dungeon Keeper Bullfrog, and the even more recent cancellation of the multiplayer-focused Fable: Legends, there seemed to be no hope for a new installment in what was once the most exciting RPG franchise ever. With a nearly-forgotten experiment with the Kinect, Fable: Journeys, and some Xbox Live Arcade games based on the minigames in the franchise, there hasn't been a commitment to a mainline Fable game in nearly a decade. Whatever happened to Fable? Despite being one of the highest profile, exclusive franchises on the Xbox, after the release of Fable 3, Microsoft didn't seem to know what to do with the franchise.
