It was already rumored that Fable and Perfect Dark may very well be coming to Xbox Series X, however Twitter accounts for each games have added extra gas to the hearth – that means that Fable Four may very well be nearer than we thought.
The accounts for each games have been initially shared on Twitter. You can take a look at the tweet beneath.
I’m undecided who found the @fable and @PerfectDarkGame placeholders, however a Microsoft Xbox worker is following one, and the opposite is registered to a Microsoft e mail tackle 👀 pic.twitter.com/MagqUbPiZf

As the tweet notes, one of many accounts is adopted by a Microsoft worker, whereas the opposite is registered to a Microsoft e mail tackle. Both of those details would often suggest a level of legitimacy that makes the accounts’ existence just about indicative of a full-fledged Fable 4.
However, Warren clarified in a follow-up tweet that, “Microsoft has confirmed the accounts are genuine, but says they’ve been inactive for years and it’s standard IP protection. But one was registered in March 2020 and the other in June 2020.”
The affirmation got here from Aaron Greenberg, GM of Xbox Games Marketing at Microsoft, who wrote, “I know everyone is hungry for news, but sorry to get your hopes up. These accounts have been inactive for years, it’s standard practice to secure social handles for our IP.”
As Warren notes although, each accounts have been created in 2020, and clearly haven’t been inactive for years.
Warren concluded his thread by confirming that the Perfect Dark account “was created by a fan recently, and a Microsoft employee was the first to spot it and follow it.”
“The Fable one appears to be the genuine one Microsoft references as IP protection,” he stated.
Although Greenberg notes that the account was made purely for IP safety, the actual fact it was created this yr – proper earlier than next-gen – is sufficiently thrilling for Fable aficionados to get their hopes up for Fable 4. Some time in the past, we heard that Fable 4 rumours describe a “completely open” sequel in which Albion is gone.
Here are some other series Microsoft should bring back for Xbox Series X.
