Wow, okay, so apparently there’s a leak—seriously, how do these things even happen?—suggesting there’s a new game in the A Plague Tale series. Crazy, right? Just in time for a big showcase reveal. The last game, A Plague Tale: Requiem, came out in 2022. And it was on everything from Switch to PS5. Wild how gaming spreads, like jam. Or maybe a plague—bad joke?
Anyway, Asobo Studio, the brains behind this series, kind of nailed it with A Plague Tale: Innocence. Ever heard of it? It got folks talking—like, we’re dealing with these two siblings living through the Black Death in France. Rats everywhere! Sounds nuts, but it worked. The visuals were bonkers good, like actually artistic, and the story, man… sibling goals, if you ignore the whole plague thing.
So, then we got Requiem, which carried on with Amicia and her brother tackling some supernatural stuff. And yes, more rats. It’s intense, but that’s the draw, I guess? Helps if you don’t mind rodents, probably.
And now, rumor has it Focus Entertainment might have accidentally spilled the beans about another game called Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. Someone posted it on Threads, then poof, vanished—except the internet never forgets, thanks to folks who screenshot. Apparently, this new game might drop in 2026? Xbox, PC, PS5, but maybe not the new Switch, which—wait, why not Switch 2? Seems odd considering the past releases, but hey, unpredictable industry.
So what’s this Resonance game about? The name might say a lot. Probably not a direct sequel since the last one really wrapped things up. And Sophia, remember her from Requiem? She shows up in the leaked art. Maybe it’s about her? Who knows where they’ll take it next. Could be the start of a whole new saga, or… or just a spin-off?
Gah, so much speculation! Anyway—where was I? Oh, right—no official word yet on the leak, but could there be a big reveal around the Xbox Games Showcase? Maybe. Or not. This entertainment world keeps you guessing, that’s for sure.
