The duration and system requirements of the new Fable have been revealed
After Gamescom 2026, a bunch of fresh details about the new Fable surfaced — this one is billed as the franchise revival. The FAQ on the official website puts completion time at up to 40 hrs (that includes side activities); if you stick to the main story only, expect about 15–20 hrs. Gameplay was shown at the show, with most attention on the combat system. Oddly, the creator of Ori wasn't impressed and dismissed the battles as "a whole bunch of basic elements."
What kind of computer is needed to run Fable?
More specs have been posted. Updated system requirements say that, for a comfortable run, you'll want an RTX 3060 Ti and 16 GB of RAM (i.e., the medium tier is the practical sweet spot).
