A Plague Tale: Requiem is a long, well-written, thrilling, and powerful adventure that offers a richer gameplay experience with enjoyable choices, stunning graphics depicting diverse environments, and a superb musical atmosphere. In our review, we concluded, “A Plague Tale: Requiem is a game of faith, a sister’s faith in her little brother when the world collapses around them. It is also a testament to the great talent of Asobo Studios. This sequel offers a richer gameplay experience without disrupting the formula, while staying true to the genre it targets. Amicia’s desperate struggle is as magnificent as the graphics and soundtrack that bring the game to life.” Our review gave it a score of 18/20. The only drawbacks we noted were imperfect stealth mechanics and a lack of final polish. Usually priced at €49.99, A Plague Tale: Requiem is currently available on the Steam platform for the discounted price of €24.99, a 50% promotion that ends on July 31st.
