As spotted by Reddit user snow9876, Microsoft’s Mixer streaming service now has Fable 4 appearing in the search bar when players go to select what game they’re streaming. It’s possible that this means nothing, but it could also be a sign that Fable 4 will be announced at E3 2019 as has been predicted/leaked.
The most recent leak came from a NeoGAF poster claiming to be an industry insider. The poster supposedly leaked Microsoft’s entire E3 2019 press conference, which included the announcement of a Fable reboot. They also claimed that the new Fable game wouldn’t be coming to Xbox One, but rather, it will be making its way to the next-generation Xbox console instead.
If the Microsoft E3 2019 leak is to be believed, all fans will get of the next Fable at E3 is a cinematic teaser trailer. While this may be disappointing for some fans, it makes sense if the game is aiming for the next-generation Xbox and a 2021 release date as the leaker suggested.
While fans should take all of this information with a grain of salt and keep their expectations in check, there does seem to be enough evidence to conclude that a new Fable game is in development. Whether or not that new Fable follows the story of Fable 3 or if it is a reboot is up in the air, but hopefully we’ll have answers come Microsoft’s E3 2019 press conference in June.
Microsoft’s E3 2019 press conference will take place on June 9 at 1:00pm PT.
Fable is rumored to be in development for the next-generation Xbox.
