Microsoft has pushed back the release date of its upcoming Fable game to 2026. In an update on the official Xbox podcast, Xbox Game Studios chief Craig Duncan said the game will now ship in 2026, rather than the previously announced 2025.
Duncan expressed confidence in Playground Games, the developer behind the new Fable installment, saying they are bringing a “beautifully realized version of Albion” to the franchise. The game is set to follow Humphry, a hero who must stop a mysterious figure from his past threatening Albion’s existence.
This delay comes as Microsoft prepares for other high-profile releases this year, including South of Midnight, Doom: The Dark Ages, and The Outer Worlds 2.
