Fable developer Playground Games has seemingly opened a third studio
Fable developer Playground Games appears to have opened a third studio.
As spotted by Wccftech, the UK developer’s LinkedIn page makes reference to three studios, all of which are based in Leamington Spa.
“Today, Playground has three world-class studios in Leamington Spa,” the developer’s About tab on LinkedIn reads.
“In our original HQ, we continue to support and grow the huge, vibrant Horizon community. In our new studios on the other side of town, we are excited to be developing Fable, a new beginning for the legendary franchise.”
This is different to the About page on the official Playground Games website, which still makes reference to just two studios.
“Today, Playground has two world-class studios in Leamington Spa,” it reads. “In our original HQ, we continue to support and grow the huge, vibrant Horizon community. In our new studio on the other side of town, we are excited to be developing Fable, a new beginning for the legendary franchise.”
It’s not yet clear how the third studio differs from the others, or how many staff are working there.
After years of speculation, Xbox finally announced last month that Fable will be released in 2025, and will be available on Game Pass on Xbox and PC on day one.
Playground Games – which is usually best known for the Forza Horizon series of open-world racing games – also confirmed thatit’s been collaborating with Eidos Montreal on the game.
The last Eidos Montreal game released was 2021’s Guardians of the Galaxy, which was met with a generally positive critical response butdidn’t meet Square Enix’s sales expectations.
