A Plague Tale: Requiem

Amicia and her younger brother Hugo continue their journey through a medieval world ravaged by plague and supernatural forces. As they search for a way to help Hugo, they travel through villages, cities, and wild landscapes where danger can come from soldiers or vast swarms of rats.

Explore locations, solve environmental puzzles, and make your way past enemies through stealth or direct combat. Light, fire, and the rats themselves shape how you navigate hazards and approach encounters, while larger areas offer different routes through some situations.

Amicia uses a sling, crossbow, and crafted alchemical tools, with supplies to manage as she travels. Hugo can interact with the rats in distinctive ways, and Amicia’s skills develop according to how you play, supporting stealth, aggression, or a mix of both.

Many supplied reviews praise the emotional story of Amicia and Hugo, the characters and performances, and the striking medieval environments, atmosphere, and music. Some also enjoy the expanded combat options and the ability to approach encounters through stealth, tools, or direct fighting. Other players find the pacing slow or repetitive, criticize parts of the stealth and combat, or disagree with the story’s character choices and direction.
