Lionhead has something in the works that doesn't have anything to do with the Fable series. "We're working on other different sorts of games as well that we're not talking about right now and won't be Fable-esque," Lionhead boss John Needham enigmatically confirmed with Eurogamer.

Producer Stuart Whyte added that Lionhead is "not just a Fable studio" and that "where we are at the moment we've had a lot of Fable games in recent times, but I wouldn't say that we're just Fable." Whyte concluded that he "can't really say any more" about Lionhead's current development slate. The studio's latest Fable game is the Fable Anniversary collection, due February 4, on Xbox 360

Lionhead was acquired by Microsoft in 2006 and has since worked entirely on the Fable series. Needham took over the role of studio boss last year, after serving stints at Cryptic Studios and Gazillion.
