Microsoft just made Fable Legends free to play. That’s right, this next entry in the Fable universe is going freemium. It was emphasized that you can play through the entire game with a base set of characters and without caving in to any microtransactions, but we’re sure that there will be plenty of push or temptation along the way, such as a rotating stable of characters, weapons, items, quests, etc.
Keep in mind that one does not simply transition to a F2P model unless you have some serious plans to roll out some marketing and make some cash from your loyal fans and potential consumers. Will this result in much mediocrity, or will Fable Legends rekindle the flame of a franchise that might be slowly burning out?
Thanks to Crave’s Game Revolution for the news on this change.
