In de podcast liet Duncan echter weten dat zij de ontwikkelaar van Fable meer tijd gunnen om de game te ontwikkelen. Om die reden is het uitgesteld naar volgend jaar. Duncan laat verder weten dat gamers zullen worden beloond en dat de titel het wachten waard zal zijn en dat dit de beste optie is voor alle partijen.
Dit vertelde hij met de volgende woorden:
“We previously announced the date for Fable as 2025, we are actually going to give Fable more time and it’s going to ship in 2026 now. While I know that’s not maybe the news people want to hear, what I want to assure people of is that it’s definitely worth the wait.
What they’re bringing to Fable as a franchise, just think of the visuals of what you expect of Playground Games, plus amazing game play, British humor, Playground’s version of Albion, so inspired by what’s gone before with the franchise, but their take. And quite frankly, the most beautifully realized version of Albion you’ve ever seen.
So really excited about the plans and really excited about the future and I want the community to understand that we do these things for the best of the games, and the teams, and ultimately that results in the best games, or the best game for the community.”
