Microsoft shows off Fable Legends on Windows 10 and Xbox One

LOS ANGELES — We know Fable Legends is going to be special in one way — it will be one of the handful of games that enable console and PC gamers to play together.

Microsoft this morning showed off more on Fable Legends, a free-to-play game set in the Fable universe. It’s cross-platform, with players in Windows 10 PC versions of the game playing with (or against) those on the Xbox One video game console. It’s one of several instances we saw at its Electronic Entertainment Expo briefing this morning of Windows 10 and Xbox One working together.
