E308: Fable 2 online co-op confirmed [Update]
Microsoft is set to announce a 2 player on the web co-op mode for Fable 2 to go along with the drop-in drop-out offline co-op mode already announced at GDC 2008. The on the web mode seems to be the missing piece of details regarding the anticipated role-playing adventure. Anticipate to be able to play through the entire story with a friend when the game releases — which is expected to be this fall.
Fable 2 from developer Lionhead Studios is the anticipated sequel to the popular 2004 role-playing game for the Xbox. Recently it was revealed the title would do away with a HUD and cutscenes to tell a more immersible story as well as the capability to create your own henchmen, to abide by your good or evil bidding.
[Update: We’ve got the details on how online co-op will function: In the game world you’ll see purple floating spheres which represent the location of your friends in their own single player games. All you’ll need to do is approach the orb, and you’ll be able to bring your friend into your game. And this is available at any time, from the beginning of the game to the end]
