Even though Fable 2 has gone gold, development is not entirely complete according to Microsoft's Gamerscore Blog.Though singleplayer and local co-operative play will work fine out of the box, online co-op is still being worked on.

The blog post mentions that developer Lionhead Studios is shooting for a title update to be released within a week of launch. Until the patch hits, "as you are playing through the game, you will still be able to see your friends as glowing orbs as well as chat and trade with them."

The Xbox 360 exclusive RPG sequel will be in stores October 21.
