'Fable Legends' Open Beta Gameplay Release Pushed to Spring 2016 from Holidays 2015

Lionhead Studios announced this week that gamers are going to have to wait even longer for the Open Beta gameplay of Fable Legends, one of the most anticipated free-to-play online multiplayer of 2016. Originally planned for the 2015 holiday season, it has now been pushed to Spring 2016 due to more work needing to be done on the expansive project. Gamers can still play the Closed Beta up until the next level of testing.

According to Polygon, the Closed Beta has been running since 2014.

This push might seem aggravating for anxious players, but it sounds like the wait will be worth it. This delay is happening because Fable Legends is turning out to be the biggest project of the studio, which is clearly some promising news to those excited for the finished product (via IGN).

"To be honest, we didn't anticipate just how big Fable Legends is becoming. It's simply the most ambitious game we've ever created at Lionhead," the studio announced this week on its official website. "The team is working exceptionally hard and we're proud of how far the game has come. We're operating our closed beta 24/7 and have added lots more features, quests, creatures, and heroes to play. Hundreds of thousands of fans have participated in the beta so far, and we can't wait to open it up for all of you to play. To achieve our aspirations for Fable Legends, we've moved our open beta release to spring of 2016. So to all of you who have been playing in our closed beta, and to all of you who have been waiting patiently for the game to release into open beta, we want to thank you on behalf of everyone at Lionhead."
