A writer from Horizon Forbidden West has jumped ship to work on a new fable game

Andrew Walsh, the senior writer for Horizon Forbidden West, has joined the Fable development team at Playground Games. Despite being most known for its work on the highly acclaimed Forza Horizon racing series, Playground Games is presently working on its first fantasy RPG based on the Fable intellectual property.

Walsh’s new job at Playground Games was announced on Twitter to applause from developers, coworkers, and Fable fans alike. He will serve as the principal writer for the forthcoming Fable relaunch, a post he previously held for PlayStation’s Horizon Forbidden West. Despite the fact that Walsh is a new hire at Playground Games, this will not be his first collaboration with the Fable franchise. Walsh was formerly the story lead for Fable Legends, which was canceled on March 7, 2016.
