Fable Is Bringing Forza Horizon's Biggest Strength Into a Very Different Kind of Open-World RPG

When gamers think of Fable, racing and cars are the last things that come to mind. Xbox's beloved fantasy RPG series was once one of the biggest franchises that the company had under its belt, but Fable has been lying dormant for well over a decade now. However, developer Playground Games has been working to bring the franchise back, and it's an unlikely partnership that has drawn as much intrigue as it has attracted skepticism. Until now, Playground Games has made its name through the Forza Horizon racing franchise. It's a far cry away from Fable's fantasy world of Albion, which puts plenty of pressure on Playground Games' shoulders.
