Watch Four Minutes of Xbox One/PC Exclusive Fable Legends in Action With Lots of Combat

A new video has surfaced of Fable Legends. The clip shows plenty of frantic hack-and-slash action and, to be fair, it actually looks pretty solid.

i miss the old fable :(

FlexLuger3238d ago

This isnt a main line fable game. You will get your wish before this console cycle is up. I will enjoy it for what it is.

"i miss the old fable"

-So go back n play the "old fable"....the only thing this game has to do with the main Fable games is the look of the characters. As IGN explained it literally is a new game, tagged with Fable for name recognition. We all want a new main Fable game but until then I can't argue with more games that from what I've seen and read are pretty fun.

-No doubt a NEW X1 Fable4 will come soon enough.

@Genuine-User
-I agree Fable3 wasnt as good as it predecessors and the other Fable stuff was terrible but I disagree about Fable Legends...this looks very promising, had they not put Fable in the title I think people would be more open to it as a standalone new IP that hopefully is a great example of future X1/PC cross gameplay. PLUS making this cross play game experiment FREE means you got nothing to lose.

TwoForce3237d ago

But what is it ? A spin off or not ?

FlexLuger3236d ago

@TwoForce

correct. This one doesnt even have a proper story line like main fable games. Its a through and through spin off, and as such allows for a different style of gameplay in the same universe.

Just see it for what it is rather than what it isnt. Its a 5 V 1 moba style free to play game. nothing more or less. It has some interesting mechanics, the real quation is whether its MP modes have legs like halo, gears, and forza. As long as its fun im in. And when a mainline fable game turn up (its inevitable) that will be the single player focused experience. I* think this approach is better than trying to shoe horn MP modes into the main games. They can even support this game along side it..updating it to work as a multiplayer component to fable 4...such a feat is well within the realms of Microsoft's technical expertise.

I don't appreciate how Lionhead has treated Fable.

Fable 1&2 were my favourite WRPG's.

It all went downhill with Fable 3.

-Fable 3 - average at best
-Fable Heroes - bad
-Fable: The Journey - bad
-Fable Legends - a free to play action game, what were they thinking?

PhucSeeker3237d ago

It's the Federation Force of Fable. That being said, we can still try the game out without having to pay for it, unlike some other spin-off.

UnHoly_One3237d ago

I'm in the beta and although I can't give any details I will say the game is really good at what it is.

Even if it's not a typical fable game, it's really good fun.

christocolus3237d ago

Nice. I've been hearing good things about this game.seems those in the beta are loving it. Most of my smite and fable info comes frm the xbox one sub reddit. A lot of users there have actual info.

TwoForce3237d ago

Wait what ? Did you just say Original Fable and Fable 2 are typical RPG game ? This new Fable look much more like MOBA.

christocolus3238d ago

I hope this game turns out great. definitely going to try this out..

Eonjay3237d ago

It free to play so why not. I might try it on PC myself.

Kane223237d ago

if this wasn't a pvp centered game i would be more than happy to play it. but i'll just have to wait until a storyline based single player one comes out...

Canceled Video Game Sequels That Never Happened

Anticipation can turn into disappointment so often in the video game world. Canceled video game sequels can feel devastating, especially those that promise to expand upon the thrilling stories of their predecessor.

The orginal prey 2 better be on this list.

And it is. Man if could've got this instead. Wonder why no one's step up to do this kinda game yet. I think there's one in development for pc, it's cyberpunk Era but it takes place in some huge apartment complex I think. Anyway I'm saying this not knocking the prey that came out cause I did enjoy that to but really wanted prey 2 (canceled)

Skuletor104d ago

I wonder if they never happened because they were cancelled 🤔 (stupid headline)

Rockstar104d ago

Was just thinking the same thing...

10 Highly Anticipated Video Games That Never Saw the Light of Day

There have been so many games from major developers that we have been excited to finally play, that somehow, in some way, got axed before they were ever completed.

It's time to take a look back, and pour one out for all of the lost brothers and sisters of gaming that were taken before their time.

Deep Down is never going to see the light of day

porkChop2198d ago

Shame, it looked pretty cool.

IamTylerDurden12198d ago (Edited 2198d ago )

My top 10

Star Wars 1313 - This was my if Star Wars and Mass Effect had a baby, sorta..

Silent Hills - P.T. nuff said.

Deep Down - Visuals were stunning. Capcom, please.

Agent - it has become the R* version of TLG.

Bioshock VITA - It was legitimately planned and in the works, until it wasn't..

Visceral Star Wars - Visceral, Hennig, 3rd person Star Wars action.

Scalebound - Looked awesome early on, other than the Beats By Dre..

Prey 2

Infamous VITA (rumor)

IamTylerDurden12198d ago (Edited 2198d ago )

Infamous VITA was a rumor. It was to be called Infamous: Electric Souls and Nate Fox pretty much promised me. Darn you Nate.

The Santa Monica space RPG was a shame. Too bad SSM has such high standards, i bet it wasn't that bad.

gamerpop2198d ago

Star Wars 1313 and the recently canceled EA game were big upsets.

Raven7222198d ago

Fable Legends? Really? Every other game on that list I can agree with but that. That game never had hype. It had artificial hype from people who wanted it to be more than what it was looking to become. It was hardly ever spoken of outside of list wars and some poor schmuck who was forced to write about the game because it made an appearance at some convention. It wasn't what people wanted. They wanted a proper Fable game. They got a garbage asymmetrical multiplayer game in the vein of Evolve but even less exciting.

The 10th Rider2198d ago

Eh, I think the original concept was decent enough, even if it was nothing spectacular. However it felt like the more and more they showed the worse it looked.
