Anna Megill Leaves Playground Games, Fable Reboot Continues with “Heroically Talented Team”
It’s with a heavy heart that we bid farewell to Anna Megill, the narrative lead of the highly-anticipated Fable reboot, as she announced her departure from Playground Games. But fear not, dear gamers, for she assures us that a “heroically talented team” will carry on working on this exciting project.
Megill joined Playground Games in February 2021 as Fable’s lead writer and later took the reins as narrative lead in July 2022. Working on Fable has been an absolute dream come true for her, and as she bids adieu, she couldn’t help but shower the game and her colleagues with love and praise.
In a tweet, Megill shared the news, saying, “Friends, I have news! In August, I’m stepping away from my role as Narrative Lead on Fable. I’ve had several wonderful years scribbling away in my fairytale cottage, but the time feels right for new challenges.”
Despite her excitement for new adventures, it’s clear that leaving Fable behind isn’t easy for Megill. She spoke highly of the “heroically talented team” assembled by Playground Games, expressing her confidence that the game is in good hands. And, of course, she couldn’t help but tease what’s coming next for both herself and the team.
But let’s address the rumors, shall we? There were those who assumed something was amiss with Fable or that Megill’s departure signaled trouble between her and the studio. Megill was quick to shut down those claims, responding with a resounding “Nope!” She clarified that she simply reached a natural stopping point in her work and wanted to take a small break before diving into her next gig. No drama, just good vibes.
