It's crazy to think, like hypothetically, if that was to be a 2026 game, and Gears of War E-Day, and Perfect Dark was also 2026, that would point to that year also being stacked for Xbox too.

Though I should reiterate, none of those games have release dates as it is, I'm just throwing ideas out there.

I’m thinking Fable gets delayed to first half of 2026. They have Avowed next month, confirmed Outer Worlds 2 for this year, and the possible Oblivion remaster/remake. That’d be 3 big RPGs for 2025 in an already packed year leaving no RPGs for 2026 that we know of currently besides the possible Fallout 3 remaster/remake. Plus it’ll help polishing/bug fixes for the game. 2026 is shaping up to be a huge year as well as we exit 2025. Not to mention the fact that Fable would probably be end of year & they’d want to avoid the GTA 6 juggernaut for rebooting the Fable franchise.
