Fable is an open-world action RPG developed by Playground Games. It is published by Microsoft and will be available on Xbox Series X|S and PC. The game marks a return to the beloved fantasy series after a long hiatus.
The developers described three core pillars for Fable: Fairytale, Britishness, and Choices. Players will start their journey as a child, when their heroic powers first emerge. The game features an open world with choices and consequences that affect the story.
Fable launches on February 23, 2027.
Combat is built around three attributes: Strength, Skill, and Will, which correspond to melee, ranged, and magic attacks. The game also includes a morality system based on witnessed actions, not just direct choices. This system tracks how the player behaves in the world.
Fable will be released worldwide on February 23, 2027. No pricing information has been announced yet. The game is expected to be a major title for Microsoft's gaming lineup.
The new Fable is the first mainline entry in the series since Fable III in 2010. Playground Games, best known for the Forza Horizon series, took over development. The game was first announced in 2020 with a teaser trailer.
