In a flurry of announcements that lit up the gaming world today, Xbox and various studios unveiled game updates and trailers fans have been waiting for. Headlining the reveals, Playground Games finally gave players another look at the upcoming *Fable* reboot, with a new trailer confirming a 2025 release window. Meanwhile, *Starfield* received a significant update adding long-requested features, and Remedy Entertainment confirmed the release date for *Alan Wake 2*’s first DLC: *Night Springs*, launching this June.
The new *Fable* trailer, showcased during the Xbox Games Showcase, blends the whimsical humor fans love with a more grounded, richly atmospheric world. Narrated partly by actor Richard Ayoade’s eccentric character Dave, the teaser follows a surreal yet comedic confrontation that keeps the tone in line with the series’ roots. Though gameplay details remain light, the trailer’s visuals suggest significant progress on the title since its 2020 reveal. Microsoft confirmed that *Fable* will arrive in 2025 on Xbox Series X|S and PC, and will be available day one on Game Pass.
*Starfield* also made headlines today, as Bethesda rolled out a major update packed with performance improvements, new gameplay features, and mod support for PC and Xbox Series X|S. Most notably, players can now access land vehicles for easier planetary traversal—addressing one of the most common fan critiques. The update also includes expanded build options in outposts and new quality-of-life fixes to streamline inventory management and mission tracking.
Finally, for fans of psychological horror, *Alan Wake 2* is prepping to unleash its first batch of post-launch content. Titled *Night Springs*, the DLC will delve into new stories inspired by the in-game fictional TV series of the same name. Featuring surreal, standalone episodes starring alternate versions of familiar characters, Remedy teased that fans should expect “twisted takes on reality” when the DLC drops this June. *Night Springs* is part of the expansion pass, with more content to follow later in 2024.
With *Fable* finally on the horizon, *Starfield* evolving post-launch, and *Alan Wake 2* poised to continue twisting minds, Xbox fans have a lot to look forward to in the coming months.
