The "XBOX Games Showcase 2026" recently took place, during which Playground Games and Xbox Game Studio announced the release date of the new Fable installment. Players went to check the game's page in digital services, where an unpleasant surprise awaited them.
The description was translated, but Russian localization was not among the supported languages. On June 9, gamers noticed that on Microsoft's "XBOX Player Voice" service, user Maxim Romanov launched a poll regarding the addition of Russian text localization to Fable.
It started with a few hundred votes, but his post went viral online, and within two days, the vote count exceeded 6,000 and is already approaching 7,000.
This allowed this request to break into the top 10 of XBOX Player Voice — it is on the first page: you can vote at the following link. Thus, players hope to attract Microsoft's attention and achieve an official translation.
You can add Fable to your Steam wishlist at the following link. The release is scheduled for February 23, 2027, but owners of the Premium Edition will be able to start playing five days earlier.
