Asobo Studio have a new Plague Tale game in development. Titled Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, it's a prequel to the popular series with a brand new story, protagonist and setting.
The game will take place 15 years before the events of A Plague Tale: Requiem. You play as Sophia, a fierce young plunderer on the run but determined to uncover the secrets of her past.
Asobo Studio promise "an original story blending combat, myth and fate with a brand new take in the universe of A Plague Tale."
Here are some key details about the game's story, gameplay and world:
- Sophia’s journey leads to the Minotaur's Island, where she faces deadly trials, navigates treacherous trails, and solves puzzles, all while fighting and staying one step ahead of the army chasing her.
- As you journey deeper into the island’s heart, you’ll confront the truth behind a long-buried curse.
- Followed by many enemies, each drawn to the Island to reclaim a mysterious treasure, you must navigate a treacherous maze. Rely on your agility, tricks and sharp reflexes to outsmart enemies, perfect your parries, and unleash powerful strikes to survive deadly encounters.
- Shift between the Middle Age of Sophia and ancient Minoan times, where echoes of the past shape the battles of the present. Unfold a new story in the universe of A Plague Tale, through the entwined destinies of two heroes linked by fate and the Macula’s mysterious legacy.
- Guided by the knowledge safeguarded in your notebook, follow in your crew’s footsteps to explore a richly detailed world, unravel its secrets, and face deadly trials. Use a stolen Minoan sphere to solve ingenious puzzles by manipulating light - a force woven by Daedalus into the island’s very heart.
- It is said that only a few came back from the island. Lurking in the shadows lives a restless presence. It follows you around, seemingly knowing your every move, as it hunts through the island’s depths. Every step is a risk. Every pause, a potential end. You can’t stop, only hide, outsmart, and push forward.
At the moment, Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is scheduled to release in 2026 and will be available on Xbox Series X|S Day One with Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation 5 and Steam.
