A major upcoming Xbox exclusive, which was also previously rumored for the PS5, has been delayed. Microsoft has announced that Fable — in development at Forza studio Playground Games — will now launch in 2026 instead of 2025.
Xbox exclusive Fable reportedly launching day-and-date on PS5
Multiple reports previously claimed that Microsoft plans to release Fable on Xbox Series X|S and PS5 simultaneously. There are even reports of a potential Nintendo Switch 2 port. Microsoft did not provide a specific reason for Fable’s delay into 2026, but speculation suggests that its day-and-date PS5 launch is part of the reason.
Reliable insider NateDrake is one of those who believes that Fable’s delay could be partly down to Microsoft’s plans for a day-one PS5 launch. Although this is merely speculation and unlikely to be the main reason for the delay, NateDrake is pretty well connected and we suspect that this is informed speculation rather than just guesswork.
NateDrake further stated that Fable’s PS5 launch is all but confirmed, so rest assured, it’s coming.
Microsoft has pretty much eliminated the term “Xbox exclusive” as its games are expected to launch on rival platforms at some point. However, launching first-party games that were formerly exclusive day-and-date on a rival platform is new.
The next console generation will certainly be an interesting one, especially in the absence of rivalry over exclusives.
