Talk about a reset. It sounds too ridiculous to be true, but it also sounds like a perfectly fine excuse to wipe the slate clean, which would allow a new studio more creative freedom. You allegedly play a character in the far-flung future, at a point when humanity has managed to reach a medieval-like civilization again. The original post states that Albion and Aurora were destroyed by an asteroid willed to strike by the wish of a mad king. Interplanetary travel? Yeah, that sounds completely buckwild.
(Image credit: Microsoft, Playground Games) What Fable 4 rumors are out there? "In addition to adding new features like raytracing to support the next console generation, we are also enriching the toolset to support an open world action RPG – Fable."

"ForzaTech is the engine, tools, and pipelines that drive both the Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon series of games," the job description says.

Microsoft put out a job posting in early 2021 for a software engineer at Turn10 Studios who will focus on the Forza Tech engine. This doesn't come as a big surprise, given that Forza series developers Playground Games are developing Fable 4. That doesn't tell us a whole lot, but it seems to reinforce that Fable's sense of humor may be one big thing that isn't changing. "Fable’s clearly always been a little more light-hearted and a little more British, I think I could say, and I think Playground will keep it there," Phil Spencer said in 2021.
Playground beefed up a new Warwickshire studio just for it, so this definitely isn't a small-time Fable spinoff. That lends a bit of credence to some of the other rumors we already heard about its take on Fable gameplay.Īccording to a 2018 Eurogamer report, Playground had been chipping away at Fable 4 for a few years with a team of about 200 on an open-world action RPG. We now know for sure that Playground Games, who'd been previously rumored as the Fable 4 studio, is definitely the team in charge. Oh, but we will be playing Fable 4 before Elder Scrolls 6, according to Phil Spencer.
