A Plague Tale: Requiem Review

A Plague Tale: Requiem reviewed by Travis Northup on Xbox Series X|S, is also available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC.

A Plague Tale: Requiem is an impressive sequel to the excellent action-adventure game A Plague Tale: Innocence, upping the ante in almost every way. It doesn’t do a ton to distinguish itself from its predecessor in terms of its actual gameplay mechanics, but with a depressing yet awesome story, fantastic graphics, and memorable rat-filled moments, this unique adventure very much deserves your attention.

I’m 2 hours in and enjoying it. Do try play with headphones because the 3D audio is pretty cool. The music is great too.

Man this game is a 10 just for the story, the ending hit me like a truck. Absolute masterpiece!

[RoninOnTheStickz]

Just finished it. That ending hit HEAVY. Both games are AMAZING.

Guys, if you haven't played innocence, do it. Then play requiem. Insanely underrated games.

Hard to understand how they managed to make the sequel even darker, they nailed the incredible medieval setting. The story and writing of these two games is just incredible. Few games these days nail emotional resonance. And I’m glad they added new gameplay elements to the stealth.

Hit me right in the feels 😭

I'm 33yo, and this is the first video game ever to make me cry. Absolutely heartbreaking story that's masterfully been delivered.

This game was 10/10! What a masterpiece!

[willgiles]

At least a 9. If you the love the story it’s a ten. Beautiful. Just staggering. Favourite game this year

Just finished the game, without a doubt 10/10 masterpiece. This would even be a fantastic movie opportunity if done right or a series like they have done with The Last of Us. Hope the 3rd Plague Tale does not take ages to release!

IGN gotta do something with the spoilers in their reviews

[Murderlin]

This series is a masterclass in story telling and atmosphere

[peterGchaves]

*Who else thought it was going to be a 6/10 when you moved the scroller to the end of the video??* 😅

[TheApexHound]

Man this game was absolutely awesome. Can't wait until everyone gets to play it

[hewhy]

Just finished it today, what a masterpiece game with one of the best storytelling and narration this year besides GOW. 9/10 for me.

[doodskie]

The first one already gave me anxiety and panic attacks, cant wait to experience it again with twice the intensity.

[damilolaowolabi]

The game is amazing. The graphics are incredible, second only to Horizon: Forbidden West. The music is heavenly. The voice acting and story is phenomenal. Got me crying 😢.

This Game Totally Deserves To Be Game Of They Year. Props To The Voice Actors, The Studio & Writers. The Story Is A Whole Different Level, It Will Touch Your Heart.

[AceS_Cybersecurity]

[DNSchank]

A must play, people. It´s a raw, dark and heartfelt adventure.
