Fable Novel to Include Access to Unique Fable III In-Game Weapon​

51CsxGKEYgL._SS500_.jpg


A Fable novel set to launch alongside Fable III this October will give readers access to a unique weapon in the game.

The book, titled Fable: The Balverine Order, will be available to buy in both paperback and hardback according to listings on Amazon, with both including a code to download a unique weapon in the game when they release on October 7th.
The game is due to follow up just over two weeks later on October 26th.

The novel's being penned by New York Times best-selling author Peter David, who, according to The Balverine Order's cover, also wrote Fall of Knight. We've no idea either..

There are no details on The Balverine Order's story as yet, but according to the blurb, the novel will "include an interactive element".

Here's hoping it's something akin to the choose-your-own-adventure Fighting Fantasy gamebooks. If you don't know what they are, Google them - they're awesome.

Fable III launches on Xbox 360 on October 26th. A PC version is due to launch later in the year.

Well if it goes to shops you could just take the code from the shelf. Not that I'd do that.

But it says the code is in the book, so if it's on the shelf - open book, look at code, write it down, enter code.

Its gotta be activated, and chances are by the time someone buys it, you won't know and they will input the code before you. Either that or the code's hidden somewhere on some random page, which forces you to read it.

They do have to activate the codes at the checkout/cashier, or before they ship them

Dude you read my mind... I hope it dosent cost $60 like the controller... But I'd rather have this than that. I give a guess that its worth around $40... If it is I think I might just get it...
I know this is probably a Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay wrong guess, but if that guy on the right with the black hair turns out to a young logan, Ill laugh. Highly unlikely that its him mind you... But it kinda resembles him if you turn your head to the side and squint... :p

Re: Fable Novel to Include Access to Unique Fable III In-Game Weapon

I forgot how profiteering companies want to be. Ill get the book because it looks good, i've already ordered the LCE, and the villager maker code (if it ever arrives (had bad record with amazon shipping)) but i'm drawing the line at that. Ill wait till the controller is cheap on ebay and get it without the code.
