The asteroid impact results in “a land reduced to fables” and the leaked information indicated that Fable 4 will take place on another continent. “It’s like the challenge of making a new Star Wars movie-there’s stuff that everyone wants you to bring along, but then you’ve got a responsibility to that, to new places and I trust Playground has a good vision for that.” Fable 4 setting and gameplay “With any kind of franchise like that, where you’ve had existing versions, there’s always that balance between what you’re going to bring forward, what still stands up, and what you want to add that’s new,” Booty explained. An MMO would be one such way to do this, but Fable 4 won’t go down that road. In an interview with The Guardian, Microsoft head of studios Matt Booty noted that such MMO rumors stem from the idea that Fable 4 needs to do something new to the series to keep it fresh but not go too far off the beaten path. As such, we can expect it to be a game with a large world to explore yet with a strong single-player element to it welcome news for dedicated fans of Fable. There had been some worry that as the game's trailer teased a large world, that it would be something in the vein of World of Warcraft.īut while there will be online elements, such as co-operative functionality or limited shared open spaces, the source behind the information told Windows Central that the game most definitely won't be an MMO. The latest nugget information, not that Fable 4 is official, comes in the form of a developer insider noting that the game will be an open-world RPG, not a massively multiplayer online game. The leak detailed how Albion, the land of Fable, has been completely destroyed by an asteroid called down by a mad king who took control of The Spire, which Fable 2 fans will remember was something you needed to wrest control of from tyrant Lucien Fairfax.

Fable 4 leaks and speculationĪside from some minor tidbits of information, we've not had a big inofation drop about Fable 4 since 2019. It will apparently arrive before The Elder Scrolls 6, but that game is almost certainly years away, so don't hold your breath for Fable 4 any time soon. We'd not be surprised if 2024 ends up being the rough release windows for Fable 4.

At least the PC crowd will have this exclusive over their console counterparts, if Fable blended with Stardew Valley and The Sims sounds to your liking.Ĭheck out our upcoming PC games guide for a look at all the other titles, big and small, on the horizon.Fable 4 is going back to its swords and sorcery roots (Image credit: Microsoft)įable 4 is being worked on but that's about all we know. Right now, Mirthwood looks set for a launch on PC at some point in early 2024, and there's no sign of it coming to consoles. That's a pretty damn wide net to cast, and if Bad Ridge Games can successfully pull together all these inspirations into one package, Mirthwood should be well worth keeping an eye on. ![]() Mirthwood is hyping itself up as Fable meets Stardew Valley, with a dash of The Sims and Rimworld for good measure. Your relationship with various characters in Mirthwood is billed as "Sims-like," where you can reap rewards from your friendships and even romance. You'll need to raise animals and crops, which you can then take and trade at the local town with any of the population. This might be delving into long-forgotten ruins for battle with a real-time combat system, or you can just go settle down at home with an upgradeable farmstead. ![]() Mirthwood's fully open-world has non-linear progression, so you're free to pursue whatever opportunities you wish.
