Not only does Albion share a name with Britain, but it also seems to share history as well! During a quest from Fable III, the player enters a house in the Bowerstone Old Quarter with a bunch of little exhibits on display. It's part of the quest "The Pen is Mightier..." but if you take a moment to look around, you'll notice a brain in a jar labeled "Lady Jane Gr
At the very least, Playground Games ought to give Fable fans an update on the state of the game. Thankfully, E3 2021 is coming up, so there's a chance that Microsoft will make a place for Playground Games to address Fable and show off a few things. For a while, it wasn't clear that Fable would ever return to its formal glory. Now that a reboot of the franchise is officially on Microsoft and Playground's docket, there's hope for big new things for the franchise. Even if it's a solid game, though, release dates matter. Fable would be best off making its comeback sooner rather than la
However, the announcement of the Fable reboot isn't the same as a new Fable game coming out three years later. Under normal circumstances, it'd make sense that a new Fable game could be made in the three years between now and Fable Fortune 's release. That's not quite the case. The Fable IP spent a couple years being handed from studio to studio, and only now does it seem to be solidly under Playground Games' control. That kind of instability explains why the Fable reboot's announcement doesn't come with a release date. It probably still has a lot of development ahead of
A man named Meredith Sock writes some books which the player can find in Fable II. His novels are detested throughout Albion, with some choice book titles including (but unfortunately not limited to): "Cold Lips," "Norm and Aggie," "Objection! Overruled!," "Megafowl: The Sword is Mightier than the Hen," and "Megafowl 2: Revenge of the H
Should you opt for a pure good and angelic route, your character Creation Systems will literally develop a halo as the game progresses, with NPCs reacting to you in a more pleasant manner. If you decide on an evil and diabolical route, be prepared to sprout horns instead. NPCs will want nothing to do with you, sometimes even cowering in fear as you walk by t
The Demon Door in Mourningwood is situated next to a small village. Before approaching it, players need to make sure they have the level 5 melee or level 5 ranged skill. Once they do, they need to stand in front of the door and get either their melee or ranged weapon out (depending on which level 5 skill they have), and it should open. It can take a few tr
Just last week, Square Enix held a Dragon Quest- centric live stream celebrating the series' 35th anniversary where it officially announced Dragon Quest 12: The Flames of Fate . It's been known since 2020 that Square Enix has been working on a follow-up to Dragon Quest 11 , but now it's received an official title. Because of its announcement last week, it's unlikely that Dragon Quest 12 will get any time at Square Enix's E3 showcase . The games it has confirmed to be showing include Babylon’s Fall , Life is Strange: True Colors , Life is Strange Remastered, and Marvel's Avengers . Unfortunately, Dragon Quest didn't make the list it se
Fable games take place in the fictional land of Albion. It's a kingdom that was largely lacking a centralized government until the player arrived and established the monarchy. Otherwise, it's gone through many familiar changes, including an industrial revolution. Let's review a few details fans may have missed about the world while they were off trying to save
It's actually the oldest recorded name for the kingdom ; merchants from (present-day) Marseilles passed through Gaul and perhaps Britannia too, and recorded the area's name as Albion. As a result, it was also almost the name for the country of Canada, too, until they changed their mi
SR: Fans will also be thrilled to see the creative team assembled for this release, and Mark Buckingham returning for this arc. Can you speak to that collaboration, behind the scenes with this series ret
It's located in the snowy area just up from the lake. Players have to either marry their friend there (requires the Lover Expression pack) or go through all of the different positive expressions with them until the door opens. It can be fiddly, so if going for the expression method, the Joker expression pack might be nee
Playground Games shouldn't rush Fable, of course, but it also can't afford to take forever to release the reboot. There's big next-gen competitors on the way that the old school Fable will have to stand up to. Obsidian Entertainment, often acknowledged as a master of RPGs, has Avowed coming to Microsoft platforms down the line. Elden Ring is sure to be another competitor to Fable whenever it releases, drawing in fantasy fans who prefer darker tones. As much as the Fable IP deserves a comeback, the near future is also a difficult time for it to do so. One of the best ways it can undercut these competitors is by coming out ahead of them if possi
