The source said that due to Microsoft's insistence on using its internal engine, the development of "Ghost Fables" was slow.

CTOnews.com, December 13 (Xinhua)-- Fables of Ghost and Ghost is an action role-playing game developed by Lionhead Studios. The first version was released on September 20, 2005. It is a revolutionary and innovative role-playing adventure game.

The series was developed by Lionhead Studios until the studio was closed in 2016 and is currently being developed by the amusement park game studio, which is released and exclusively owned by Xbox game studio.

According to Microsoft insider Jez Corden, he heard that one of the problems facing the work is that Microsoft rejects external engines such as Unreal engine 5 and insists on using its own custom engine to develop games, so the new "Fable of Ghost" is probably developed by Playground Games using their ForzaTech engine, which, while great for open-world racing games, may not be suitable for RPG games.

CTOnews.com learned that Microsoft has often insisted on using outdated or inappropriate engines to develop its own games, the most famous of which is Halo Infinite.

It is worth mentioning that last month, Matt Booty of Xbox Game Studios also said that the project had overcome early problems:

"there are some things I want to share and show, because some of the things I see are very inspiring. Sometimes there are contradictions, you don't want the RPG team to make racing games, and vice versa, and you don't want the shooting team to develop building block games for your children. This is obviously a bit of a problem. But [Playground] has a strong technical base, they are passionate about the IP, and they are committed to craftsmanship and quality. [...] In some of the initial comments, I was a little skeptical. Look, I thought we were a little risky, but they took care of it. I'm glad everyone can see it. "

According to reports, Eidos Montreal's talented team is now helping to develop the Fable of Ghost and Ghost, hoping it will help them overcome any technical difficulties they are facing.
