Playground general manager Ralph Fulton admits that delaying Fable initially led to a "bit of disappointment" among the developers, but hopes that getting out of the way of GTA 6 and other games maneuvering around it can help give the RPG the moment it deserves.
Xbox had plenty to show during the latest run of video game conferences, though one announcement that caught the eye was the confirmation that Fable is indeed delayed. Rumors of just that had persisted before the event, though the original release window of late 2026 was reaffirmed until now.
