These days, however, Microsoft is shifting its strategy to include multiple console releases for its biggest games. It&#8217;s already released the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/pentiment\">Pentiment<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/grounded\">Grounded<\/a> on Switch, and there are ongoing rumours that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.purexbox.com\/games\/xbox-one\/halo_the_master_chief_collection\" class=\"external\">Halo: The Master Chief Collection<\/a> might also makes its way to Switch 2.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;d love to see this come to fruition though. Fable&#8217;s blend of fantasy action and British humour is excellent, and although the third mainline entry from 2010 was a bit lacklustre, we can&#8217;t wait to see what the new game can do.<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:nintendolife.com\/ssl\/nintendo-switch-2\/related-articles:180328 @ 1769294961 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\"> <\/aside>\n<p><em>Would you like to see Fable on the Switch 2?
