Fable multiplayer scrapped

In order to actually get the game out this year, Lionhead and Big Blue Box have collectively decided to axe the multiplayer element of their forthcoming Xbox-only RPG epic Fable.

According to an extensive FAQ posted on the Lionhead website: “Due to time constraints, we will not be including the Multiplayer feature in Fable.

Instead we have decided to focus our resources on fine-tuning the single-player experience to ensure it is of the highest possible quality.”
