First pre-alpha gameplay footage of Fable

Surprise! Unannounced gameplay from the next Fable game debuted during the Official Xbox Podcast.

The footage offers glimpses into diverse game environments, the combat mechanics, enemy types, and a brief cutscene. Even the classic chicken kick makes a return!

Previously, Xbox Game Studios' head announced a delay for Fable, pushing its release from 2025 to 2026. The stated reason is the need for further refinement and polishing.

Announced on July 23, 2020, the reboot of this beloved franchise has remained largely shrouded in secrecy. Three years post-announcement, it's evident Fable is still in its early development phases.

The involvement of Eidos Montreal to assist primary developer Playground Games, coupled with the prolonged absence of polished gameplay footage, strongly suggests the game faces considerable challenges.
