[/quote]US, April 6, 2009 - Next month Microsoft will offer a new add-on for Fable II that will provide a glimpse into the future of Albion.
The See the Future downloadable pack will be available in May for 560 Microsoft Points (USD $7) and will provide new quests, items and challenges for your hero.
In See the Future, Murgo the Trader returns to Bowerstone Market with some mysterious new treasures, including potions that can transform your dog into a different breed. And if you're feeling adventurous, you'll also be able to embark these new quests to lift the curses from Murgo's items:
The Ghosts of the Snowglobe Quest
Holding a disturbing secret, the small model village inside it was once a real town in Albion. The people who once inhabited it are now ghosts condemned to endless torment until the shadowy threat that cursed them is defeated.
The Cursed Knight Quest
Forever banished to a land beyond the dead, the Cursed Knight awaits a hero who has the strength and will to dress up in convincing costumes, even imitating a hobbe or balverine, to save him from his fate.
The Colosseum
The Colosseum puts even the Crucible to shame. Only the greatest heroes have triumphed here. Your abilities will be put to the test to prove yourself in combat once and for all, to win the ultimate in prizes.
Succeed in these quests, and you'll be rewarded with a vision of Albion's future. The See the Future downloadable pack will be released alongside a free update for Fable II that will allow those who don't download the paid content to continue playing cooperatively with friends. And as an added bonus, the free patch will introduce new items including Welley's soldier helmet and other clothing, a braided ponytail and other hairstyles, psycho Jester make-up, a new hero expression, the back flip trick for canine companions, and a collectible Murgo the Trader gold statue.
560 points? either it's a very small add on or they are trying to win back some love lost due to the knothole island add on rip off, i'm hoping it's the latter
