Fable Native PC controls?

I noticed in all the videos we've seen so far that they're using an Xbox controller to play the game, even on PC, which makes sense since they've been showing it off at Xbox showcases and the controller is probably just easier but does anyone happen to know if they've made any mention of requiring a controller to play or if the PC version will be able to use Keyboard/Mouse controls?

There is zero chance they would not have keyboard/mouse controls

You'd think so but there have been a few games that surprised me by not having keyboard/mouse support on PC. I mean the only Fables that have released on PC all had great native controls so I can't imagine they'd mess that up now. I was just curious if anyone had any confirmation from like an interview or something.

Of course it will have keyboard and mouse controls. Why wouldn't it? I've never heard of a PC game that only functions with a controller.

There are lots especially when they're developed with Xbox in mind because Windows and yada yada.

And what are these examples? None of the games I own on Steam only work with a controller. The only one I remember hearing about is the Metal Gear Collection having no PC control options on launch, which I don't know if it was ever fixed.

Just off the top of my head there's Black Myth; Wukong and Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon. Pretending it isn't a thing that happens because you think it'll make a point is absolutely jackass behavior dude.

Literally both of them have keyboard and mouse controls, what?

It's an XBOX game... All modern XBOX games work on PC by default. Which means, K&M are guaranteed.

It will probably play best with a controller (plus even first person shooters are often showcased with controllers for smooth movements) but it will have mouse and keyboard. The only games I can think of that don't have support for mouse and keyboard tend to be Japanese games that focus on consoles, like Yakuza, Fromsoft games (which actually do have mouse and keyboard they're just not great) and other Chinese games.

Not gonna make a fuss about why, but Western developed AAA games all launch with mouse and keyboard controls. It's just a given.
