Gamers everywhere were seemingly disappointed when it was reportedly too late for Lion Head Studio to include the Multiplayer function that was a major highlight for the game at E3. With tomorrow’s release of Fable 2 and all of the issues leading up to it’s release it’s no wonder fans were upset.
According to a Fable 2 developer update on Lion Head, the multiplayer patch has indeed been finished just in time for Fable 2’s release.
Lionhead and Microsoft Game Studios confirmed today that the online co-op “Fable II” multiplayer feature update is confirmed for a first day free download on Xbox LIVE, worldwide (21st October). We are pleased to provide “Fable II” fans around the world with the chance to hop in and out of their friend’s “Fable II” worlds, to meet their heroes, dogs, spouses and experience Albion, together online. “Fable II” will be available at retailers throughout North America on October 21 and across Europe on October 24.
With that being said, gamers were promised the function on day one of the Fable 2 release, it looks as if Lion Head can keep it’s promises.

I just hope that this one lives up to all that P.M. said it would not like the last one. Good game, but so not what he promised.
