The love of fans is bringing Fable back – industry insider Klobrille, who focuses on primarily Xbox Game Studios, commented on Resetera that fans should expect an announcement of a new Fable title followed by an in-engine trailer.
Just to get that expectation right, I don’t think anyone should expect a Fable announcement with a gameplay demo like what Halo Infinite will do.
I guess this will rather be in the Horizon II-trailer-like ballpark. So, an in-engine trailer but somewhat indicative of what to expect.
Back in June this month, fans had discovered two Twitter placeholder accounts with Microsoft email IDs linked to them – Fable and Perfect Dark. Aaron Greenberg from Xbox Games Marketing at Microsoft had replied that this was standard practice to secure social handles of their IPs.
I know everyone is hungry for news, but sorry to get your hopes up. These accounts have been inactive for years, it’s standard practice to secure social handles for our IP.

Alanah Pearce, ex-IGN employee and currently a host on Kinda Funny Xcast, has also claimed that a new Fable is being made.
Well, I know Fable is being made. I’ve said that a few times, it’s not been announced, but there’s just too many Microsoft employees have told me on the sly cause I’m excited about it. So I’ve had a bunch of people, like there was like five of them – and I was like, “look if it was just one of you I wouldn’t be openly talking about this, but so many of you did this, that I’m just going to tell everyone”. Fable is being made. I don’t know by who, the guess has obviously been Playground, because they recently hired a bunch of people who have experience working on open-world games. I think Forza Horizon is currently my favourite racing series ever, so I have tons of faith in Playground, too – so Fable is happening.

In a previous video on her personal channel, when asked about the likelihood of a new Fable game, she replied that she was positive that it was happening.
It is 100% likely a new Fable is being made. I promise. I know it’s happening.
