Fable creator Peter Molyneux found a new calling in blockchain technology and NFTs while planning his next game called Legacy. The game is based on blockchain technology and involves trading NFT properties. It actually started with a Land Presale Event where interested players had to purchase something called a “Land NFT” to get started. After purchasing tokens and becoming an in-game landowner, players will be able to build their digital business empire. There are also games for those who want to have their own business his partner in the game, but the player doesn’t mind sharing the winnings with that partner.
Business by the creator of “Fable” her sim also promises players a lot of freedom. Legacy is touted as a world where everything is designed and maintained by players.

Lionhead Studios President Peter Molyneux is new to Microsoft’s XBox 360 media at his briefing at the opening ceremony of his Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, California on June 1, 2009. introduced the XBox 360 ‘Project Natal’. Fable was one of the most watched games on the original Xbox when it was released in 2004. It also set the groundwork for the types of games Molyneux would later create. Some of them had an “experimental” flair.
