Xbox Game Studios and Playground Games released a new gameplay video for the upcoming Fable reboot. The new four-minute video follows the player protagonist, known as the Hero of Briar Hill, investigating magical corruption in the depths of Deepwood alongside local hero Arden with a mixture of event scenes and combat.

Fable will release for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on February 23, 2027. Its version of Albion will be unconnected to the original series created by Lionhead. The game starts out with the player as a child before jumping forward in time to their adulthood at starting village Briar Hill, where an incident sees the village turned to stone. Setting out to try and reverse it, the players’ only clues are a mysterious stranger that they briefly witness, as well as a mention of Bowerstone and the Heroes’ Guild.
