New Fable II DLC Coming May 12th

Posted by Soulskill on from the more-and-better dept.

Lionhead Studios today announced that their next section of downloadable content for Fable II, called See the Future, will be available on May 12th. The new content will include new quests, monsters and items, a Colosseum, and alter egos for the player's dog. Peter Molyneux also hinted at a connection to the next Fable game, saying, "... it would be pretty poor to say See the Future if it didn't have some connection." Further details are available in the latest in Lionhead's series of developer diaries.

  1. What about the ending by RemoWilliams84 · · Score: 3, Interesting

    You think they will make an add-on to make the ending not suck.

    I mean I play through this whole game enjoying most of it, then I get to the end waiting for this epic duel between good and evil, and it's over without a single button press. LAME!

    Sorry for this post, it just frustrates me when I feel like I wasted $60 on a game.

      It's about the journey, not the destination. No, you're exactly right. The ending of Fable II was almost as bad as finding out that Fallout 3 actually ENDED after its lame finale. C'mon Bethesda!

      I think they made the ending for Fable II open-ended. I'm just guessing that there would be a DLC to give you a "proper" ending.

      For instance, if you choose family as your ending to get your dog back in Fable II, you end up receiving a letter from your sister Rose. The letter itself is extremely vague as to her whereabouts, but it does signal that she is, indeed, out there somewhere.

      Of course, if you chose to sacrifice it all for the people who died making the tower, then I guess your dog and sister stay dead, which is a country song just waiting to happen! :D

  2. Stupid 7 gigabyte Xbox 360 Disc Format by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 2, Insightful

    All the stuff they couldn't fit on the smaller than last gen 360 7 gigabyte disc format for extra money.

    No thanks.

  3. How bout some proper multiplayer by Garbad+Ropedink · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'd like to see a proper multiplayer update for Fable 2. The whole thing of connecting online and having to share a single screen is just awful. It's one of those design choices that makes you wonder if that part of the game was made on 'huff as much gasoline as you can' day at the office.
