In 2009 Lionhead Studios, developer of Fable and Fable II, announced that they are planning on continuing the Fable series with Fable III. The game has since been in confirmed pre-production.
During the Microsoft Press Conference at Gamescon 2009, Peter Molyneux announced that the game would be released in late 2010, and presented a trailer with the voiceover saying "The kingdom of Albion is changing. The race for the crown has begun." It will feature the Hero of Bowerstone's child on a quest to become king or queen of Albion.
From the trailer shown at Gamescon, it can be assumed that Theresa will be returning for Fable III, due to her yet again being the voice-over for the video, and that at the end of the clip, you can make out the hem of her by now familiar robe.

[edit] New Features
Peter Molyneux has confirmed that the game will have many new features, including:
- Episodes: There will be 2 episodes featured in the game. The first is to campaign to remove the king from the throne. The second is ruling Albion after you receive the crown.
- Judgements: As ruler of Albion, you will be able to determine how and if to respond to the requests of your citizens, such as punishing criminals.
- Touch: The simple expression system has greatly evolved. Now, "You can shake someone's hand, and then that might turn into a hug. You can then turn that into an embrace, and then into a full-on snog."[1]
- There will be much more far reaching consequences for your actions than in the past two games due to at least part of the game taking place with the character as a monarch.
- Peter Molyneux has stated that it won't just be Albion, but has yet to give more information. Clues from the end of Fable II, lead to Reaver and Garth in Samarkand. In the quest, "the Vision" after getting the DLC "See the Future", Theresa clearly states that the unborn child will change the fate of Albion and Aurora. Aurora could be an entirely new setting in Fable III.
- The previous saves from Fable II will be featured in Fable III. This means choices of your old hero will affect your new hero in Fable III. Choices from the two DLC's, Knothole Island and See the Future, will also correlate.
- Fable III is rumored to utilize Microsoft's Project Natal.
