Jez Corden Calls New Fable Alpha “Fantastic”
Language: EN | RU
An alpha build of the new Fable looks “fantastic” and resembles The Witcher 3, journalist Jez Corden said on November 19 in The Xbox Two podcast.
“It looked fucking fantastic. <...> Super polished, super good,” were among his main conclusions.
According to Corden, the game almost looks as though it were made by CD Projekt RED. He saw major similarities in combat, including pirouettes, dodges and finishers, alongside multiple weapon types and spells.
The journalist also saw a giant chicken and a Balverine in the game. He added that at Summer Game Fest he had heard about plans to let players choose their character’s gender.
On June 9, Xbox Games Showcase 2024 officially confirmed that the new Fable was planned for 2025 and showed a new trailer with gameplay footage. Several screenshots then appeared on the game’s Xbox Store page.
In July 2020, Microsoft confirmed that a new Fable was in development at Playground Games, best known for the Forza Horizon racing series. A teaser was shown at Xbox Games Showcase 2020, after almost a decade of unconfirmed rumors.
Three years later, in June 2023, Playground showed the first trailer with gameplay footage at Xbox Games Showcase 2023. At the time, it was unclear whether the game was Fable 4 or a reboot of the series. It was known that the new entry was being developed on the ForzaTech engine.
