Talking about Xbox has always been synonymous with Fable. And is that the RPG that gave life from the extinct Lionhead has been characterized as a spearhead in the strategy of the brand. For years we have been demanding a new installment, after the closure of the study and the cancellation of Legends , IP fans have felt a bit orphaned in this field and that is why there are voices that have already risen claiming that “already plays” a new delivery.
In the past we were able to give you an old concept art of what was going to be this fourth installment. But this possible Fable was canceled at the Xbox 360 stage to bring Legends to life. Now that the rumors put the development in the hands of Playground Games, everything looks with magnifying glass.
What is known about the supposed Fable of Playground?
Well, we officially know that the studio located at Leamington Spa is working on an open-world RPG. The job offers have been carefully studied to give no clue, although some media with enough authority and trustworthy such as Eurogamer put the development of a new installment of Fable in the hands of Playground.
We also learned that the studio has been signing Lionhead talents related to the old IP that currently seems asleep. Even some old components of the English study gave clues that we are indeed facing a new Fable.
Fable in the modern age
As always in this house we are looking for information wherever we can so that our readers know first hand what they can expect from what is to come. Reviewing several professional profiles of design artists, we have come across these elaborate artworks to hold the position of design artist in Playground Games. They have been uploaded recently, 4 days ago.
After talking with the artist in question, he has confirmed that the information is true. These artworks are not the final concept, they are only tests under the conditions and guidelines set by the artistic direction of the studio to determine if the artist in question is able to represent what they are looking for. This means that both this design and the character that has been built with it, may never see the light, but at least the clues found in it. We are trying to verify more data with third parties.
Concept for the Playground Games RPG.

If you look closely, reference is made to the 16th century. Given that all Fables are inspired by stages lived in England, we could set the time frame of this at some point in the modern age, which is located between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries. It seems that we are facing a hero or a female character with character.
The evolution of Fable on Xbox One
It certainly makes sense to have chosen this timeline. Fable is a franchise with strong inspirations in difficult political decisions and hectic periods. The modern age had in England, a very convulsive moment between the two churches and the rise of the bourgeois. A perfect climate to transfer the already stirred Albion.
It also involves the incursion of both the Spanish and English empires to colonize the Americas . Something that would give a lot of play if we talk about an open world game, in fact some rumors pointed out that there would be 'new continents' in this Fable.
Be that as it may, we don't know what the final game will be like, just to speculate based on these proofs of concepts that, as I say, may not be representative of the final finish of the RPG in which they work from Playground Games.

El nuevo "Fable" de Xbox se ubicaría en la edad moderna
Gracias a estos concept arts para una prueba de oposición a un puesto de trabajo en Playground, podemos ver que el nuevo Fable se ubicaría en el siglo XVI.
