Xbox fans have been growing steadily concerned about the new Fable game for a variety of reasons, including the prolonged silence, the language used to describe the game, and the inexperience of the team making it. A new report has now confirmed these fears, stating that the game has been struggling with development due to “internal politics over engine use.”
Report confirms concerns of Xbox fans over struggling development of new Fable game
According to the report, developers on the game are struggling with using Microsoft’s internal tools, and rather than let them use third-party tools, Microsoft is doubling down.
This has reportedly led to problems in the development of games like Fable and Halo Infinite, as Microsoft has insisted on using its own tools rather than industry-standard tools like Unreal Engine. This has reportedly made it difficult to train contractors and retain them throughout the project.
It’s unclear how much all of this has impacted the game’s development, but it’s apparently been enough to warrant concern. Games that have development issues often don’t turn out well, with few exceptions. This is worrying for fans of the Fable series, who have been eagerly anticipating the new game.
At the moment, none of the implicated parties have commented on this report and the speculation it has created. It remains to be seen whether the game will be able to overcome these development challenges and meet fans’ expectations.
