Fable Legends is Free-To-Play

Citing the need to make Fable Legends “available to as many players as possible”, Lionhead Studios announced that the 4v1 asynchronous multiplayer title will use a free-to-play monetization method. According to the developers, the entirety of Fable Legends’ storyline will be available for every player, but Heroes will be available on a rotation, and Villains will be able to purchase new Traps, Gates and Creatures that would have to be unlocked through gameplay otherwise.

First, a trailer:

Then, a couple of excerpts from the official FAQ:

ARE THE HEROES FREE?
There will always be a set of Heroes available to play for free. The Heroes on free rotation will be available for everyone to play for a set period of time.

HOW WILL HERO ROTATION WORK?

A set of Heroes will be available to play for free for a limited time, after which a new set of Heroes will take their place. This gives you the chance to play every Hero in the game for free over time, and any progress made on a Hero will be kept until they come back into rotation.

If you want permanent access to Heroes outside of free rotation, you’ll be able to earn them through gameplay, or purchase them for real money.

WHAT WILL I BE ABLE TO BUY AS A VILLAIN?
Each Quest in Fable Legends has a number of Creatures that are native to it. If you want to use Creatures that are non-native to that Quest you will be able to unlock them through gameplay, or by purchasing them.

You will also be able to earn or buy different types of Traps and Gates to find new and exciting ways to take down the Heroes.

As expected due to its nature as a multiplayer title, Xbox One players will need an Xbox Live Gold subscription play Fable Legends.
