Molyneux Confirms Episodic DLC For Fable 3

Lionhead has revealed Fable 3 will be supported by DLC episodes following its release.

In an interview with Bit-Tech, Lionhead's Peter Molyneux revealed that his fascination with Charles Dickens inspired the decision to release DLC episodes.

“I’ve often thought it would be brilliant to be walking through Charles Dickens’ London. It was such a dark place and very episodic too – so we’re doing that with Fable III,” he said.

“We’ll give you the first big episodes, and you’ll be able to download new episodes, which is analogous to the way Dickens wrote.”

However, he also revealed that the DLC may not be delivered through the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, as is traditional.

“Some of the shops in Albion are linked to the internet and every so often populated by stuff from Lionhead. You don’t have to go out to some horrible dashboard and download the Armageddon Pack 5.”

In other recent Fable 3 news, Molyneux asked for community feedback on the first thirty minutes of the game which may not feature any combat.
