    This could be awesome!

    Hopefully it's done right, and not what their last "title" was that basically killed the series.

    I just hope it eventually comes to PC.

    I believe all of the Xbox games revealed today are simultaneously releasing on PC. They are doubling down on GamePass.

    Yes fable will launch on pc at the same time a lot of their games you can play on pc or xbox and the save works for both. So if you went out of town and were playing Shadow of war on the xbox if you bought the play any where title and went some where with your laptop you could continue the game with the same save from the console.
    all microsoft published games will be available on game pass day one.

    this one is being made by playground games think forza horizon I am not really into racing games but the horizon series has been rated very high. I am with you on fable 3 that was an awful game then they made some dumb kinect game and some kind of 4 vs 1 game was in production that never came out but looked terrible. I have fatih this one will be better but would have liked to see a date as I am not buying a new xbox until it comes out.

    I can only hope the pc version doesn't use the same UI and controls as the console. Not interested in yet another half-assed port.

    Before anyone gets their hopes up, answer these: "Who are these devs, Playground Games?" and "Are they really capable to pull another Fable 1?".
    Their last game was Forza Horizon 4, and it got metacritic score of 88.

    They are capable of pulling out a really good game. It doesn't mean they would succeed this time, but they've made good games previously and they've got enough funding from Microsoft that they have a decent chance of success.

    rumoured to be an MMO if i'm not mistaken

    That trailer looks so well done to be honest. Seems a lot like to be an MMO kind game.

    People said the same thing about Biowares Destiny - Warframe love child Anthem. Making a good game in one genre really doesn't mean you have a decent chance of making a good game in another.

    In War - Victory.
    In Peace - Vigilance.
    In Death - Sacrifice.

    Decent chance doesn't mean guaranteed success.

    All I know is that, unless something goes catastrophically wrong, I'll be playing it, and GamePass is still probably the best deal in gaming right now.

    The first Fable was great, the second one was just OK, the third one was awful...I guess we shall see.

    I LOATHE "console-centric" games!, what keeps me away from ESO, and the only thing I dislike about the Elder Scrolls games is the console-centric controls.
