Fable 4 release date 2013?

[Aions]

Fable developer Lionhead is apparently working on a fourth incarnation of the role-playing series.

That's according to US Official Xbox Magazine, which published the news in its rumours section (spotted by CVG).

"Look for the Fable cycle to continue with a proper, controller-based Fable 4 in 2013," the publication promised.

Microsoft-owned Lionhead took four years to turn around a sequel to the original Xbox's Fable, while the gap between Fable 2 and 3 was just two years.

A 2013 launch for Fable 4 allows time for the studio to squeeze out Kinect-enhanced Fable: The Journey, expected sometime next year.

Lionhead has already stated The Journey isn't Fable 4 - it's a more light-hearted, family orientated take on the fantasy series instead.

Eurogamer has been told the next Xbox will likely debut at E3 next year. Is Microsoft lining up Fable 4 as a launch title for its new console?

so not only do we have to wait 2 more years, we might have to buy a new console....

I found that article a little while ago and posted it here. It didn't seem like very many people saw it though.

And yea, I heard about the 720. My roommate looked it up and found an article that basically said the 360 -> 720 transition would be a lot like the PS2 -> PS3 transition in that they will still be releasing 360 games for a while after the 720's release, so there's still a chance we'll have Fable 4 on the 360, which I'm definitely hoping for.
