Fable Going Gold For PC

August 23, 2005

I had already blogged in here about the “good vs evil” choices in video games, giving Fable as an example (and an interesting one). Well, PC owners, rejoice, for this game is now going to be available on our dear computers, and not only on Xbox anymore: on September 20th, Fable indeed goes gold, as announced by GameSpot, and not only in its original version. New spells, quests, armors and regions to explore have been added, to answer the often-voices reproach that the game wasn’t of “epic-length” enough.

Last year’s ambitious “choose your own adventurer” role-playing game, Fable, is about to complete its long journey from the Xbox to the PC, as Microsoft Game Studios today announced that Fable: The Lost Chapters has gone gold and will hit stores September 20.

Though it was fairly well received, one of the common knocks against the game was its less-than-epic length. This prompted developer Lionhead to go back to the PC release and add new spells, quests, armor, enemies, and regions to explore. An Xbox version of Fable: The Lost Chapters is expected before the end of the year as part of the Platinum Hits line of games with a $19.99 price tag.

Fable: The Lost Chapters is rated M for Mature and will retail for $49.99 on the PC.

Here’s something that definitely needs to be kept under the eyes—at least by myself, and probably by lots of RP gamers out there.
