Fable II
is an upcoming role playing video game for Xbox 360, developed by Lionhead Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios. It is a sequel to Fable and Fable: The Lost Chapters.



  • Role-playing game provide gamers with an epic story and innovative real-time gameplay
  • Master hand weapons, combat weapons and a new magic system
  • Revisit the sprawling world of Albion 500 years after events of the original Fable
  • Play with friends in multiplayer Dynamic Co-op Mode
  • Earn in-game currency to purchase weapons, armor and more

Dynamic world

The world in Fable II will be fully dynamic, interactive and free roaming with no set quest path to take.


Since the game will take place over a hero's lifetime, many things will change; Molyneux gave an example of a trade camp that the player could either help or destroy. Trading in such camps would increase their profit, resulting in a small town growing around them, while stealing from the camp or massacring the camp will result in the abandonment of the area.
Additionally, every accessible property (properties that can be entered by the player) in the world is ownable, and ownership often unlocks further quests. The houses will be furnishable with furniture etc available to buy. In addition titles will be awarded for buying property; if one were to buy every building and piece of land in a town he may become the mayor of that town; owning more land leads to higher titles such as king, and eventually emperor of the entire land of Albion.[19]


The environment in Fable II will feature trees with branches and leaves that are individually animated according to their own physics, each tree having roughly 120,000 leaves. There are also around 15 million poppies in Albion. [6]


Peter Molyneux also has revealed the "bread crumb" trail, a feature that shows glowing sparkles in a line in front of you to guide you back to the main story line. Peter also said players are free to turn off this feature at any time and venture on your own path to that quest or just completely ignore the quest and explore more of Albion or partake in a side quest.

Looks good Jon! I loved the first Fable game, and I still own the original Fable and the expansion Fable: The Lost Chapters.
