Newsflash:

New Fable II Content Downloads

Published November 24, 2008

The epic journey begun in Fable® II, the fastest selling RPG on Xbox 360®, is not over. Starting in mid-December, return to Albion's service with the release of the Knothole Island downloadable content pack.

New adventures await in Knothole Island.

The remote island of Knothole is dying, its golden sands and lush vegetation covered with snow, its people freezing, its treasures buried. Only a hero can face the trials of the three shrines to bring back the sunshine.

Explore the Storm Temple for new treasures.

Following its release on Xbox 360 on October 21, more than 1.5 million units of Fable II flew off store shelves worldwide in the first two weeks, making it the most popular game, across all platforms, in the U.S. in October. With the release of the first Fable II downloadable content, available exclusively on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points, set sail for Knothole Island, where new quests, wondrous items, and bizarre characters await.

Meet new characters and embark on new quests.

Free Co-Op Pack

Also in December, enhance your Fable II experience with the release of a free Fable II downloadable pack exclusively on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. To engage in co-op gameplay with a player who has already downloaded the Knothole Island content, you will need to download the free pack. Both co-op players must download the Knothole Island (Premium) pack in order to play new quests and enjoy the complete Knothole Island co-op experience.

Free and premium downloaders will receive a shower of special gifts, including Knight's Boots, Assassins Gloves, a special Weight Loss Potion, collectible silver book and more. You can also check your standing in over 50 new Leaderboards on Lionhead.com.

As an additional treat, Lionhead Studios and Microsoft Game Studios have created an all-new Albion dashboard theme in celebration of the launch of the New Xbox Experience.
