There’s a big announcement coming. It’s on the horizon, looming like a dark stormy cloud heavy with rain, lightning and the thunderous clap of cool news. Tomorrow there’s going to be some news about “can’t miss content” on the Lionhead community website.

Of course they’re not giving a hint of details today, since the announcement is coming tomorrow and they want endless speculation to abound. I wouldn’t be surprised if Lionhead employees have a pool going on regarding what most people are expecting.

Many of course are thinking this could be simply the announcement of a new content pack, or maybe even several. It’d be impossible to ignore the possibility of this being the official announcement that work has begun on Fable III. A twitter slip-up earlier this year hinted that Lionhead might already be recruiting people for the project. Another possibility exists however in the possibility of spin-off games. The storylines of the first two games were only linked in a subtle fashion, but it’s very obvious that an underlying current of plot is being laid for future games. The considerable amount of content that exists in the world of Albion could be ripe for other adventures beyond what’s happened so far.
