Fable 3

In October last year we finally got the opportunity to venture back to Albion. Now the game creator Peter Molyneux announces the next part in the series. The game is in development for Xbox 360 and will probably be released sometime later in 2010. Hopefully there will be ports for PC later on.

In Fable III takes the player will go in to the role of king or queen over the Albion. Albion have now reached the industrial age, which may make the gamplay interesting. The future will tell if this ruins the original feeling or makes it bloom.

The decisions the player makes will be reflected in the whole kingdom. In addition, a large part of the game is based around the player judging citizens. For example, someone can be accused of a crime and as king/queen the player must determine sentence. To do this the player needs to talk to witnesses, visit the accused’s family and so on, to decide the guilt. This type of decision will shape society in Albion. New in this release will also be the availability for the player to, for the first time, travel outside the kingdoms borders.

Unfortunately, there’s seem to be no screenshots of the coming release, maybe because the development status. But hopefully there will be some trailers or screenshots next month.
