Fable 2 is the working title of a video game sequel for Xbox 360.
The game has been officially announced by Lionhead Studios, the parent company of Big Blue Box developers, it is speculated for a late 2007 release. It was announced during Microsoft's press conference at E3.
Rumor has it that the sequel will pick up with the main character, who has his personality split in two between good and evil. The gamer will play as one of the personalities trying to either defend the land, once again, against evil or conquering the entire world. This summary leads many to believe the Fable sequel is leading to a 'Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones' gaming theme. No actual summary has been released as of yet.
From the E3 trailer, it can be gathered that the game will take place in Albion, but many years later, taking on a colonial theme, rather than medieval. This is evident in the way the characters in the trailer dress, and also in the fact that early firearms were seen briefly in several scenes. Peter Molyneux has also given some information, during an interview on G4 that Fable 2 will most likely have a multiplayer component, though he didn't admit it, he hinted towards it.
Following the mixed reviews of Fable, many fans are hoping the sequel will take a more open-ended approach to the story and quests than the original.
