A Plague Tale: Requiem is an action-adventure game in which you follow the adventures of Amicia and Hugo after the events of A Plague Tale: Innocence. But your journey will be full of dangers, and you’ll have to face them to save Hugo.

In 1349, the Black Death ravaged Europe, and it is during this dark period that A Plague Tale: Requiem takes place. Indeed, this adventure game, developed by Asobo Studio and published by Focus Entertainment on October 17, 2022, follows the adventures of Amicia and Hugo, who are trying to escape a terrible fate. And right now, it’s available for $17.49 instead of $49.99 until April 17, 2026.

Six months after the events of the first game, Hugo’s curse resurfaces, and you must find a cure to avoid devastating consequences. Therefore, you decide to go to a new destination, but your journey will be full of obstacles.

Indeed, the plague and the Hundred Years' War are still present. Consequently, throughout your adventure, you'll need to be discreet and avoid every danger. But sometimes you'll have to face various enemies. Nevertheless, there are many weapons and accessories at your disposal. In addition, you also possess unearthly powers that you’ll need to use to defeat the most powerful enemies.
