In this video, you’ll see:
- Living an Extraordinary Life: Build relationships, form a family, and carve out your place in Albion.
- Meaningful Choices: Your decisions don’t just impact the story – they change people’s lives, and you’ll have to live with the consequences.
- A Nuanced Reputation System: every NPC has their own personality, and will react differently to you based on your actions.
In Fable, Albion evolves with you as you play, and the consequences of your decisions are never far behind.
Fable will launch for the for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, and Xbox Game Pass on February 23, 2027.

the magic spell -> sword slashing -> bow fireing back and forth, kinda looked wonky too (like 27m into it).
There is plenty of room for improvement with animation work here.
A.I of the guards looks abit off too.... they just stand around, instead of attacking together.
Might be done on purpose for the showcase? Anyways, they have like 8months to work on this.... time to polish this up.
at least us JRPG fans are eating good from the Nintendo direct! the Nintendo direct itself was horrifically bad, 30 minutes with nothing at all to start
but if you look at the games, and not the presentation, there was a lot of stuff in there that is good hidden under the bad stuff, all shown after people turned the presentation off ha
They fixed the walking animation (for a male character).... no longer walks lady-like..... the running still seems abit off but, its still much better than that first showing of a male character. I notice the animations (mouths) don't match the words or sentences they are saying (was this done automatically by some program? or such instead of manually?).... He does not open doors, he runs into them, and they open.... this is pre release so should be fixable before launch. The world looks beautiful, and the reputation system looks fun.... this just looks like it needs more polish.
If this gets delayed i wouldn't mind, just hope it comes great
This looks great! We finally get a long look at some gameplay. They nailed the Fable tone and the combat looks fun.
My most anticipated game by far.
This is teetering on the edge of being too silly for me to take seriously. Man, I don't know.
Silliness is a Fable staple. Going around farting on folks, kicking chickens, romancing, getting an STD, etc. Of course it has serious moments too and based on the most recent trailer, we can see that.
This felt like Fable I knew and like (well, mostly), but man oh man, it just doesn't look anything like it. It could be Harry Potter, Kingdoms of Amalur or any other similar game - it just lacks that exaggerated character style that Fable was known for.
Creature and boss designs looked unique enough in the trailer
