Wonder if they'll refocus Fable to what people seemed to be wanting? Canceling Legends is just....so harsh, since it felt so near to being done.
Stunning news. Is this part of a bigger picture?
Isn't Sea of Thieves an online only f2p multiplayer game? Just like Fable Legends?
chadskin's op had the titleStunning news. Is this part of a bigger picture?
though reading the xbox page I don't see anything suggesting more changes of such kind (closure/restructuring of studios)Development of Fable Legends ceased, more changes at Xbox Europe
They only really exist for their name as is. When Sea of Thieves predictably doesn't live up to the Rare legacy (particularly due to taking part in a genre outside of the studios' experience) I'd expect a closure of the studio not long after.
Isn't the IP Co-Owned by MS/Topps like Shadowrun is?
Did this come as a surprise to the team? :/

By the way, this means the first and only cross play Windows 10/Xbox One title has been canceled as Windows 10 Games launches.
black and white wasn't an incredible game but god if i don't remember it as one of the most magical gaming experiences of my life. everything about it was pure class, right from that lionhead logo that appeared out of all of the little points of light.
Btw - title is misleading. Lionhead is not closed just yet. They are still discussing this.
What have been the last few games Lionhead of released? The last one I saw was the Fable on the rails game that looked like shit.
Fable Legends wasn't really an RPG. It was more of a multiplayer action game.Was Fable Legends really looking that bad that they couldn't see it through to completion after all this time? It would have given the XB1 another console exclusive title, and an rpg at that, a gamer demographic they have not catered to very well this generation.
It's so, so sad.
Fable died so Phantom Dust can live.
Well, MS is makkng trmselves feel like all they care is about FPS now. Fable Legends would've been mixed sales, but thats no reason of closing Lionhead Studios. Guess MS got tired waiting on Peter Molyneaux to mKe another hit. Now watch MS attempt to buy another RPG studio to fill in that genre gap.

Phil Spencer said:Head of Xbox | Defined more by what I do than who I am.
NO!
You cant close until we get Black and White 2!
Well that's...
Something...
Fucking hell though, Legends was shaping up really well :/
Why cancel it now, of all times? At least get the thing out the door, it seemed like it was pretty close.
