Fable 2 (16+)
The highly anticipated sequel to the widely successful original that sold more than 3 million copies, offering even more choices and building on the core gameplay theme of Fable, where players every decision continually defines whom they become. Fable II is an action role-playing game (RPG) that truly allows players to live the life they choose in the newly expanded open world of Albion. Set 500 years after the original, Fable II will provide gamers with an epic story and innovative real-time gameplay, including a massive amount of freedom and choice to explore a vast collection of dungeons, catacombs and taverns in the world of Albion.
Choices, consequences. The innovative gameplay pioneered in the original Fable provided gamers with a never-before-seen level of immersion in a truly interactive world. Fable II expands upon the scope and depth of the Xbox classic by adding incredible new features and creating a wider, more complex kingdom of limitless choices and consequences. Players will have the option to play as a man or woman, get married, have children, and live a life of their own design all leading to different destinies.
A land far, far away. Gamers will revisit the newly expanded world of Albion more than 500 years after the events of the original Fable, where they are free to explore the landscape and openly roam the countryside. For the right price, every house, hut, dungeon and castle is for sale. Players can witness how the world grows and changes in response to their decisions in incredible and unique ways as they rediscover Albion as if for the first time.
Fight with ease. Fable II pioneers a new combat system designed to allow players to truly master hand weapons such as swords and maces, ranged combat weapons such as crossbows and guns, and an entirely new magic system. These three disciplines, while very accessible, are also amazingly deep, and allow players to mix combat styles and become everything from master swordsman to skilled ranger to evil magic wielder, each using a different single button on the Xbox 360 Controller.
A heros best friend. This groundbreaking addition to the game is integral to the theme of unconditional love in Fable II. A players canine companion will act as friend, compass and protector. Players must merely feed their pooch and he will love unconditionally, creating a bond that sets up emotion-filled journeys throughout this magical world.
Experience the world together. For the first time in the Fable series, gamers can experience the expansive and immersive world of Fable II with friends, either on the same couch or over Xbox LIVE together in co-operative mode. Fable II embodies the new Xbox experience and will extend the Xbox LIVE service further with the introduction of orbs. Orbs allow for seamless LIVE co-op play and interaction with other Fable II players.
Xbox LIVE Arcade Fable II Pub Games earn major gold. Lionhead Studios is providing an unparalleled experience to gamers through Xbox LIVE Arcade. Gamers can start earning in-game currency for the Fable II world in August 2008, before the game?s release to retail, by downloading and playing an Xbox LIVE Arcade title, which contains three casino-style minigames titled Fortunes Tower, Keystone and Spinnerbox. Gamers can win items such as dog tricks, potions and chocolates; unlock 15 pieces of concept art; and use the gold earned to purchase weapons, armor and more in Fable II.

For both fans of the previous installment and newcomers alike, Fable 2 is a must have as those nights draw in. Good or evil, you choose who whose side you're on. |
