I'm excited to Gamepass this.

Hope you have a long subscription.

All I need is one month. If I like it that much, wait for a sale and buy.

I meant it looks like that game is years away from release.

I would say more like late 2024.

If they had the remotest of hope this would be ready in 2024, they would have ended with a 2024 message. They didn’t even have gameplay shown, just cute, well-voiced CGI and a sight gag.

For what it's worth, there were a few seconds of gameplay footage. Not much, but not nothing. Blink and you'll miss it.
It also wasn't 100% pre-rendered CGI but included significant "in-engine cinematics" which isn't much more exciting, but at least is a representation of the assets they've built for the game and not something completely irrelevant.

But yeah. 2025 at best.

Gotta say that I really loved the Fable series but I am not feeling the trailer. Just wasn't what I was expecting at all.

Dan

Hmmm… the shots he points out DO look like gameplay shots… but most of the trailer appeared to otherwise be in-engine cinematics, so not sure what he means by “real,” but maybe we shouldn’t doubt Playground Games’ ability to deliver just yet.


Still, they’re actively recruiting for positions related to this game, and there’s no release date/year officially announced. Unless they’re in the home stretch (unlikely), we’ll be waiting awhile for this.

True. I guess it's just wishful thinking

Fable is one of my favorite series. Can't believe how many people crapped on 3 as i thought that was a great entry and was sad to not see Fable 4
