Good news for anyone who wants to get smashed by Richard Ayoade.
Microsoft's Xbox Showcase gave us our first look proper at Playground Games' upcoming Fable reboot and the vibes are as good as it gets. The trailer stars comedian and actor Richard Ayoade, a fruit and vegetable farmer with a very low opinion of heroes . This is interspersed with clips of a Fable hero doing their thing, as she shanks a few bandits, sinks the odd pint, and seemingly wellies a chicken into the upper atmosphere.
It's deeply charming stuff and visually spectacular, with the realisation of Ayoade capturing his expressions, mannerisms, and deadpan delivery perfectly. There will be questions over the claim at the bottom of this that it's"in-game footage" though certain sequences involving the hero are certainly suggestive of stuff .
This makes an impression because Fable was always to me about those funny twists on the traditional stories, about suggesting another version of something you're familiar with, and toying around in that collective myth-hoard of fairy stories and fables.
