A while back, news broke that Fable 2 would arrive sans co-op action. Players would have to wait for a patch to come out to get their needed fix. Then we found that perhaps the developers would push the patch out on release day. Consider that confirmed!…sort of.
“Remember a couple of days ago (or was it a week) where on a blog it was mentioned that Fable II would be shipping ‘without’ Online Co-op? And remember we said we were busting our balls to get it ready in time for a ‘Day One’ release? Well – G o o d [Good] news folks! It looks like we’ve done it…for all of you who are connected to Xbox Live, when starting up your copy of Fable II (on 21st October in USA, 24th October in Europe and 18th December in Japan). So all of you getting upset and all, you wouldn’t even have noticed… Sort of. Well done to the team.
Taken into account we don’t fail certification!” —Lionhead Community
Microsoft is all that stands in the way between you and your long lost friends. Let’s hope you meet up in Albion on day one.
