Rumor: The New Fable is in Terrible Shape

Reports suggest Fable's 2026 delay stems from deeper issues than initially stated. Multiple insiders paint a picture of a game in serious trouble, far from a simple need for additional polish.

Extas1s, a known industry insider, points to struggles with the ForzaTech engine as a major hurdle. Designed for racing games, this engine is reportedly ill-suited for the demands of an open-world RPG. Furthermore, Extas1s claims early gameplay was underwhelming, necessitating extensive reworking of mechanics and pacing.

HeisenbergFX4 corroborates these concerns, suggesting Fable's development is so far behind schedule that a 2026 release is not guaranteed. With Microsoft aiming for a PlayStation release, meeting Sony's high standards adds another layer of pressure. Given the recent reception of Starfield and the mixed response to Avowed, HeisenbergFX4 argues that another significant setback for Microsoft is simply unacceptable.
