So I guess we can confirm that the new Fable is, uh, set in an English fairytale world, possibly with an English comedy actor or two, where you can kick chickens. Alright. Yep. I had guessed that much. This does look pretty, mind.

“What does it mean to be a Hero?” asks the blurb. “Well, in the fairytale land of Albion, that is entirely up to you. With a dark threat looming, and in a world where your reputation precedes you, your choices will change Albion forever.”

That’s Fable alright. And that’s about as much as we’ve heard about the game since Microsoft announced itthree years ago.

Fable will be on Game Pass day one when it hits Windows and Xbox Xeries XS, whenever that will be, whatever it is.

I only wish Microsoft had got Ayoade into the studio for one of thoseawkward celebrity cameos at video game live showsthat Alice Bee likes so much.
