About Fable

Fable is an action role-playing series created by Lionhead Studios and published by Microsoft. The first game shipped in September 2004, followed by Fable II in 2008 and Fable III in 2010.

Players control a hero in Albion, taking quests, jobs, marriages and property. Good and evil choices reshape the hero’s appearance and reputation. Combat mixes melee, ranged and magic, and heroes level up by spending earned experience. Fable II and Fable III added drop-in co-op. Playground Games directs the 2027 reboot, a single-player open-world return to Albion with Hayley Atwell as the villain Isabel.
