Two of the biggest and best Xbox One exclusives, Fable Legends and Scalebound, were both cut down in their prime, leaving the Xbox's list of exclusives looking pretty thin.

The first out of these to go was Fable Legends which, although suffering from a rocky development stage, had just been announced to be a free-to-play experience. Everything seemed to be going to plan, but then Microsoft announced the game's cancellation and dropped a talented team of developers. Fable Legends was so close to completion that it seems like only Microsoft can be to blame for it's disappearance.

Of course, the bigger cancelled project was Platinum Game's ambitious Scalebound. This action-RPG title looked extremely promising, with the ability to control your own dragon practically confirming it to as a game of the year contender whenever it came out. For some reason, Microsoft decided that this extremely exciting game wasn't going well enough and outright cancelled it.

Whatever the reason may have been for cancellation of both titles, it wasn't a good look on Microsoft getting rid of two of their biggest games which is something they still haven't made up for now.
