"Fable, the open world action-RPG from Playground Games, received an extended look at Xbox Developer Direct on Thursday. The first-party Xbox studio revealed gameplay details and promised a "truly open world" driven by player choice and actions. Fable was also confirmed to launch on PS5 alongside PC and Xbox Series S/X in autumn 2026. Playground Games, known for the acclaimed Forza Horizon series of open world racing games, said that Fable would be a "new beginning"."
"In another nod to the original trilogy, players will begin their journey as a child in Fable, growing up in a village called Briar Hill. It is here that players will discover their heroic powers. But the idyllic life in the village collapses when a mysterious stranger turns the entire village and its population to stone. That's where players begin their adventure that will have far reaching consequences for Briar Hill and for the larger world of Albion."
Fable is a rebooted open-world action-RPG from Playground Games that retains the franchise's fairytale tone and British humour while introducing a new beginning. Players begin as a child in Briar Hill, discover heroic powers, and face a catastrophe when a mysterious stranger turns the village to stone, driving a world-spanning adventure. Albion is described as a vast, seamless open world with varied landscapes, villages, and major cities like Bowerstone featuring the Fairfax castle and Heroes' guild. The game emphasizes choice-driven gameplay, NPC interaction, character creation, and a new morality system affecting consequences across the world.
