It was declared a short while back that Fable 2 would not have co-op on release. Well turns out that this has all changed, as Lionhead have declared on their official blog that they will indeed be making it in time for launch. When you place your Fable 2 disk in on launch day, the patch should be sitting there waiting for you eagerly.

“Remember a couple of days ago (or was it a week) where on a blog it was mentioned that Fable II would be shipping ‘without’ Online Co-op? And remember we said we were busting our balls to get it ready in time for a ‘Day One’ release? Well –
news folks! It looks like we’ve done it…for all of you who are connected to Xbox Live, when starting up your copy of Fable II (on 21st October in USA, 24th October in Europe and 18th December in Japan). So all of you getting upset and all, you wouldn’t even have noticed… Sort of. Well done to the team.
Taken into account we don’t fail certification!”
Good news to all (well the collector edition folks might still be a bit angry)!
