Few more important legends in the history of video games than Peter Molyneux. The English developer has always been characterized as a visionary whose promises about his games have almost never been fulfilled. Maybe we didn't see everything that came out of his mouth on the screen, but that hasn't stopped him from presenting us games with very interesting ideas.
One of them is the legendary Fable, which is available on Xbox Game Pass for Xbox One, Xbox Series and Xbox Cloud Gaming in its Anniversary version. One of the most remembered RPGs that shaped a franchise with several installments and that is getting closer and closer to returning. And Playground Games has taken the reins of the license to make the leap from the curves of Forza Horizon to an unparalleled medieval fantasy.
The success of Fable can easily be measured by the fact that it is the best-selling RPG on the original Xbox. Obviously we are not going to play the 2004 version, but rather a HD remastering of the original which offers revamped textures, renewed 3D models, improved lighting, a friendlier interface and achievements to get even more out of the title. As if that were not enough, the content of The Lost Chapters is also included so we don't miss a single mission.
The world of Albion opens before us so that we can take the path we see fit. We can make our character become a hero or villain depending on the decisions we make, earning ourselves a reputation that will echo throughout the region. Of course we are talking about a more than solid experience thanks to the great work of the defunct Lionhead Studios, but Molyneux even commented that we would see “the best game in history.”
Not only that, but he mentioned that in Fable we could have children, we would live the entire life of the character and that if we threw an acorn from a tree, it would grow into a tree of its own. None of this actually happened, but for a long time Molyneux kept us drooling thanks to similar statements.
