The announced Fable II: Knothole Island downloadable expansion for Xbox 360 has been delayed according to Xbox.com news update. The site claims "technical difficulties" have caused a delay from its intended Decmeber 22 release till "late January".

Fable II: Knothole Island expansion will not be available until late January 2009. As a result, the Fable II, Knothole Island Download and Win, originally scheduled to take place December 22 – 23, 2008, has been temporarily suspended. Please check back for updates. In addition, you can still register for the Download & Win by downloading the free Fable II: Knothole Island registration gamerpic, or by registering via Xbox.com

This will put the new Fable II content in the same release period as a planned DLC release for Fallout 3.
