đź‘ŤLocation pinging and reactions are coming to Fablecraft
Hello, Mages! 👋🧙‍♂️
For this week’s Fablecraft Friday, we’re ready to showcase the upcoming emote reactions and location pinging features, which are currently in development and slated to launch with our next major update.

[h2]Location pinging, with a meaningful twist[/h2]
If you’ve used our feedback board and looked into the top 10 most upvoted feature requests, you know that location pinging in both combat and story scenes has always been a popular ask.
It’s officially coming.
We’re building a location pinging system that allows you to imbue your pings with extra emotion, and we’re doing this with a new set of in-game emotes (which we’ll showcase below).
You could use the sword emoji and the pinging tool to point to the potential location of a hidden combatant. Or, you could signal a curious alcove with the question mark ping. Maybe a local shop caught your attention and deserves a quick thumbs up.
We’re currently working on the appearance of the pings themselves, so consider the GIFs, screenshots, and clips in this post and the vlog above to be work in progress that will likely change.
[h2]Emoji reactions, too đź’—[/h2]
What about when you want to react to something happening in-game, but your camera’s turned off? We’ve heard players want more ways to play text-based or microphone-only games, and the pinging feature above and emoji reactions will help make that experience even better.
You’ll be able to emote soon, and it’ll look something like this…
Those emotes will appear next to your camera or hero portrait as you play, and they’ll arrive with some animated spice to make things feel more alive.
[h2]About those brand-new emoji[/h2]
You’ve seen thumbs, hearts, and Bubblefrogs; but what emoji are we delivering with this first update? Here’s the in-progress panel.
I adore the Fable Dice, especially.
All of the above emotes are now available in the Fablecraft Discord, in case you’re a member.

That’s it for this week’s update. We’ll see you soon, Mages!
