Molyneux: Fable 2 compatible games coming to XBLA

If you can’t wait for the release of Lionhead Studios‘ Fable 2 to come out later this year, here’s a little something to tide you over. Peter Molyneux recently announced the upcoming release of three “Fable-compatible” games for the XBLA, which will allow players to earn some much needed gold and use them for Fable 2 once the game goes live. You can check out the details about this interesting added-value feature for the game in our full article.

With this year seeing the release of the highly anticipated sequel to Lionhead Studios‘ Fable, company head Peter Molyneux talked about three of the upcoming Xbox Live Arcade games tied to Fable 2 in a recent podcast with Major Nelson.

Molyneux mentioned that he wanted to see more games that “talk to each other”. This became the motive to create these three Fable 2-related games.

Carbonated Games was responsible for the development of the upcoming titles – Mage Dice, Wizard’s Tower and Keystone. The new titles will allow players to earn some much needed gold which can be spent in Fable 2. Any gold earned on any of the three casual “Fable-compatible” games will be transferred to the main game once it goes live.

There’s been no word when either Fable 2 or its related XBLA spin offs will be released but we’ll keep sure to keep an eye out for more updates. Keep coming back to this spot for more information on Lionhead Studios’ Fable 2.
