Fable, Beast of Reincarnation get release date windows set for later this year

And Fable's also confirmed for PS5.

At today’s Xbox Developer Direct, both Fable and Beast of Reincarnation got release date windows set later into 2026.

Game Freak’s Beast of Reincarnation is expected first, in the northern hemisphere’s summer 2026 (roughly June or July 2026 for us Aussies). Fable will follow after that, sometime in the northern hemisphere’s autumn (or September, October 2026 for us). Both titles are also planned for release on PS5 alongside PC and Xbox Series consoles.

“In post-apocalyptic Japan, a land ruined by corruption and crawling with monstrous beasts, humanity’s last hope may rest with Emma—an outcast cursed as a Blighted One—and Koo, her loyal canine companion. Survive a journey across an ominous, ever-changing world where dangerous forests can erupt in the wasteland,” reads a description of Beast of Reincarnation. “As Emma and Koo push deeper into the unknown, their bond strengthens—and with it, strange powers bloom. Explore what it means to be human in Beast of Reincarnation, an expansive one-person, one-dog action RPG built around demanding, technical combat. What awaits at journey’s end?”

“The Fable team at Playground Games took us to the fairytale world of Albion, for the first in-depth look at the studio’s brand new open world action-RPG – and revealed that the game will be coming to players in Autumn 2026,” Microsoft said of Fable‘s showing earlier today.

“Developed by a dedicated team at the UK-based studio, Fable is set to deliver everything players love about the original trilogy – choice and consequence, dry British wit and playful moral chaos – all reimagined for a new generation of players in an unmistakably Playground way.”

We also learned today that Forza Horizon 6 will head to PC and Xbox Series consoles from 19 May; a PS5 release will follow later.
