Fable Legends Delayed, Open Beta Now Arriving Spring 2016

Lionhead Studios has decided to extend the Fable Legends closed beta and will be inviting an additional 100,000 people over the next few weeks. That means the Fable Legends open beta will not open this holiday as previously announced and has been delayed until spring 2016. The company divulged some details for the delay, saying that the game is “simply the most ambitious game we’ve ever created at Lionhead.”

The company will prioritize those that have been waiting the longest for invites to the closed beta and those people will be able to check out the game in the coming weeks.

“The team is working exceptionally hard and we’re proud of how far the game has come. We’re operating our closed beta 24/7 and have added lots more features, quests, creatures, and heroes to play. Hundreds of thousands of fans have participated in the beta so far, and we can’t wait to open it up for all of you to play. To achieve our aspirations for Fable Legends, we’ve moved our open beta release to spring of 2016. So to all of you who have been playing in our closed beta, and to all of you who have been waiting patiently for the game to release into open beta, we want to thank you on behalf of everyone at Lionhead.”
