A Plague Tale: Requiem Crosses 3 Million Players, Developer to Make New Game

Publisher Focus Entertainment has announced that it will continue to collaborate with developer Asobo Studio to create “another exciting project.” Additional details about the upcoming game has yet to be revealed but the publisher also stated that 3 million players have “embarked on the haunting journey” of A Plague Tale Requiem. A Plague Tale: Requiem launched on October 18, 2022 and is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. It is also available via Xbox Game Pass. 

The game’s details via Focus Entertainment can be seen below:

New Horizons and New Tricks

Embark on Hugo and Amicia’s next journey and venture south of 14th century France, before setting sail to a mysterious island out in the Mediterranean Sea. Brave a terrible fate and find a cure for Hugo’s illness thanks to Amicia’s new resources—including the use of alchemy to manipulate fire and the long-distance power of a crossbow, but also her cunning use of terrain and ability to wrestle out of an enemy’s grasp. Choose to strike from the shadow or to unleash hell, with the help of Hugo’s new powers: to perceive surrounding enemies’ movements while moving stealthily, and to manipulate hordes of rats to decimate entire squads of soldiers.

Play a Demo at Gamescom

Attendees will get to play one of the first chapters of the game at Gamescom from August 24 to 28. The public will find a demo at Microsoft’s booth (Hall 8.1 Stand B-051 to C-058). It will offer the Gamescom visitors the opportunity to play the same level shown at the TriBeCa Festival for those who missed it online last June.

Another demo will be shared with the press attending Gamescom, letting them experience the level seen in the Extended Gameplay Trailer hands on.

The Tale Behind the Game

Finally, Focus Entertainment launches its “In Focus” behind-the-scenes video series on August 30, sharing exclusive interviews with developers from Asobo Studio, the team behind A Plague Tale: Requiem.
