Fable Reveals New Gameplay Trailer

Playground Games has released a new gameplay trailer for Fable, which showcases more of its gameplay before it releases in February 2027. The game will be available in February 23, 2027. 

The new trailer for Fable reveals that pre-orders are now live, and that the game will feature actress Hayley Atwell, known for Peggy Carter in the Captain America series, will be part of its cast. Check out the new gameplay trailer for Fable below:

Fable was originally planned to release in fall 2026, but according to Xbox chief content officer and executive vice president Matt Booty on XBOX Podcast, the company wants to “make sure the game has a window all to its own.” This is in reference to the release of Grand Theft Auto VI. The Steam page describes Fable as follows:

Become the Hero you want to be in an immersive open-world action-RPG where each choice shapes your journey, reputation is everything, and fairytale endings are never guaranteed.

A New Beginning For A Legendary Franchise

Fable returns in a stunning reboot of a beloved franchise. As the first Hero in a generation, explore a living Albion filled with peculiar characters, dark humour, and chickens… lots of chickens. This isn’t just nostalgia — it’s a new beginning set in a beautifully vibrant open world.

Be The Hero You Want To Be

Customize your Hero’s appearance and wield powerful weapons as you weave melee, ranged, and magical combat. Take on bandits, beasts, and creatures — including brand-new enemies and fan-favorites like Hobbes, Balverines, and Trolls. Your power grows right alongside your reputation.

Build An Extraordinary Life

Beyond all the combat lies a living world where you can carve your own identity. Get filthy rich as a landlord or blacksmith, romance a villager (or three), have a bunch of kids, and watch as your reputation precedes you. Being a Hero is a bit like being a celebrity… if celebrities carried swords and occasionally battled giant fire-breathing chickens.

Your Choices Change The World

In Albion, a Hero’s reputation is everything. Your noble deeds and questionable decisions affect your relationship with each villager and can even shape the world around you. Whose opinion matters most? The choice is yours… and so are the consequences. It’s up to you to decide what it means to be a Hero.

Fairytale Ending Not Guaranteed.

Sea of Remnants for Xbox

Sea of Remnants is also coming to Android, iOS, PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam. 

Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via Steam:

Legend says that beyond the moon lies another sea—a place where all questions are answered.

When the sailor opens their eyes once more, will they see the glass bottle floating in magenta currents, or the butterfly perched on a rusted mast?

In Sea of Remnants, you play a sailor who has lost all memory, embarking on a strange and wondrous ocean voyage alongside a mysterious girl, hoping to recover what was forgotten.

A Ship of Stubborn Souls

No sailor sets out without hoping to reach the Sea of Remnants.

In this open-world journey, you’ll recruit a crew of diverse puppetfolk allies, build your ship with custom parts and cannons, and assemble teams for exploration and battle. Whether you act on impulse or spare your enemies, stay home or chase profit across the currents—your smallest choices ripple outward. With over 300 companions and rival factions reacting to your decisions, Orbtopia’s evolving cityscape and the ever-shifting sea are shaped by your will.

Orbtopia: A Pirate’s Safe Haven

No sailor wants to drift forever.

Orbtopia is the liveliest pirate city on the sea. Failed voyages end here—washed back by the tide. Repair your ship, upgrade gear, and prep for the next departure. Or take it slow: craft rare, high-fashion gear for your pirate crew, open a shop with a trusted NPC. Pirate always have a lot of plates spinning.

As night falls, sizzling oil crackles from street stalls, coin pouches jingle from another lucky trade, and someone just lost their last chip at the mahjong table. Tackleboxes snap shut with a clatter—who’s glaring green-eyed at the angler now? There, cats rule the alleys. Roosters itch to set sail. A pirate gorilla rises from obscurity. A parrot translates between beast and man. Orbtopia breathes in noise, spice, and a little chaos.

A Reckless Voyage Awaits

No sailor faces uncharted waters without awe.

Unpredictable seas and dynamic weather mean no two journeys are alike. One moment, the skies are calm—the next, a storm splits the heavens. Sea beasts shimmer beneath whirlpools. Leviathans descend through lightning and cloud.

Step ashore onto volcanic, jungle, or sun-bleached islands, or uncover eerie ruins and strange tribal grounds.

Cue the Electric Guitar

No sailor dreams of playing it safe.

Built on real ocean physics, creature behaviors, and environmental systems, Sea of Remnants blends stylized animated visuals with sharp-edged comic book flair, vibrant graffiti energy, and absurdist glitch aesthetics—a sensory feast.

Fight wildly imaginative bosses. Discover eerie legends. Chase mysterious treasures tucked into remote wilderness. It’s a pirate adventure that’s wild, romantic, and utterly punk.

Key Features

      • Endless Loops of Memory and Loss: Every bond you form will resurface at the journey’s end in the Sea of Remnants—a place where memories cost everything.
      • Welcome to Orbtopia: From fishing and cooking to music, mahjong, and alchemy, “slacking off” is the true profession of Orbtopia’s pirates.
      • Turn-Based Strategy Meets Team Synergy: Form your dream pirate crew, train them in hidden professions, and unlock powerful skills to tip the tide of turn-based combat.
      • Multiple Combat Modes, Infinite Chaos: Launch raids in real time, battle bizarre sea monsters, engage in dazzling close-quarters duels—the ocean never sleeps.
      • The Ocean and the City, Both Punk: Don’t fear failure. Every journey connects a beginning and an end. The harbor is just as punk and romantic as you.

Ending Note

The memories of past voyages flow together as glowing magenta currents, linking every island, sea monster lair, and distant port.

Another memory bottle sinks into the sea, scattering radiant ripples across the tide.

And remember: all seas lead to one mysterious destination—the Sea of Remnants, where the truth awaits.
