Fable Legends debuts gameplay footage of asymmetrical dungeon crawler

Fable Legends will be launching its beta this autumn, developer Lionhead announced during Microsoft's E3 press conference today.

The series spin-off pits four players cooperatively against one villain, who's tasked with spawning monsters for the heroes to fight in real-time. The heroes will play from a third-person behind-the-shoulder perspective, while the villain overlooks things from above.

It appears that the four heroes are class-based and specialise in Will, Skill and Strength. In other words, one focuses on magic, another ranged combat, and another melee brawling. Perhaps the other is a jack-of-all-trades?

Get a looks at Fable Legends in action in its debut gameplay demo below.
