After the Kinect enabled Fable: The Journey was revealed at Microsoft’s conference yesterday, Lionhead studios subsequently revealed that they would be using Epic’s famed engine in its upcoming game.
“In using the Unreal Engine with its excellent tools for crafting cinematic in-game experiences, it allows our developers to focus on the quality and uniqueness of Fable: The Journey,” said Peter Molyneux, creative director of Lionhead Studios and Microsoft Game Studios Europe. “Already we are seeing a more beautiful, vivid and unique world full of dramatic moments and have crafted new, never seen before gameplay experiences.”
Marc Rein, vice president of Epic Games, said of the partnership: “The world of Albion has always been a beautiful place, and Lionhead embellishing it using the bells and whistles of Unreal Engine 3 makes it even more magical.” He went on to proclaim that the “gripping experience [of the Fable Universe] combined with stunning UE3 visuals truly make this is a world-class union of imagination and technology.”
Fable: The Journey will be released in 2012.
