While Lionhead Studios RPG sequel Fable II will not have online co-op play right out of the retail packaging, the developer has affirmed that they will release a patch rectifying the situation upon the game’s October 21st release.
Remember a couple of days ago (or was it a week) where on a blog it was mentioned that Fable II would be shipping ‘without’ Online Co-op? And remember we said we were busting our balls to get it ready in time for a ‘Day One’ release? Well–Good news folks! It looks like we’ve done it…for all of you who are connected to Xbox Live, when starting up your copy of Fable II.
