Lionhead may be beavering away on Fable Legends and Fable Anniversary, but it’s also got a third non-Fable game in development, it’s been revealed.

Eurogamer claims to have learned of the new game during a recent trip to the studio, where work on the game is currently underway on an out-of-bounds upper floor.

“I’m not allowed upstairs,” reads Eurogamer’s report, “where developers are making Fable Legends and other, unannounced games.”

But while Lionhead admits that it’s working on “other games” besides Fable, it remained coy when quizzed on the type of projects it may or may not have in development.

“We’re working on other different sorts of games as well that we’re not talking about right now and won’t be Fable-esque,” Lionhead boss John Needham teased.

While Lionhead’s recent work has been largely devoted to Fable (it hasn’t released a non-Fable game since 2005), it has created multiple other IPs in the past.

Its most famous, perhaps, was Black & White, a God game that saw players rearing a huge beast to protect their citizens and lead into battle. It also released The Movies, a strategy game inspired by Hollywood.

Its next (and presumably last) Xbox 360 title, Fable Anniversary, releases on February 7, with Xbox One’s Fable Legends expected to follow later this year.
