Sony's PlayStation 5 has launched a brand new game called A Plague Tale Requiem, a gripping action-adventure set in the 14th century. This game puts players in the shoes of protagonist Amicia de Rune and her brother Hugo as they struggle to survive amidst deadly plagues and the relentless pursuit of the Inquisition. Players, as Amicia, must make use of all their skills and resources in order to survive.

A Plague Tale Requiem is an incredible, atmospheric world that is full of dark beauty and danger. Players must traverse a constantly evolving landscape, which is filled with a variety of unique settings, from medieval villages to ruins, to a dense forest and much more. As they move through these beautiful yet deadly lands, they will encounter thrilling creatures and puzzles, as well as Soldiers of the Inquisition, all of whom present Amicia and Hugo with immense danger.

Forbidding environments and intense combat is complemented by the gripping narrative of A Plague Tale Requiem. Featuring award-winning performances, the story follows Amicia and Hugo's journey as they try to survive not only the Wrath of God, but also the tyranny of men. The multi-layered narrative will have players exploring a treacherous world filled with heart-wrenching moments and powerful decisions.

Combat takes a very different approach in A Plague Tale Requiem. Instead of just clashing blades with your enemies, you must use the landscape, your wits, and a variety of tools to strategically get past your opponents. That means players must figure out how to use their environment with weapons and tools ' rope, planks, and more ' to their advantage.

Fighting is only part of the challenge in A Plague Tale Requiem. There are plenty of tough puzzles that require strategy and quick reflexes, as well as a variety of unique devices, from cannons to bait. Players must also find a way to protect themselves from the plague by finding clean water sources and other ways to stay safe. If you're up for it, there are also a few levels of Stealth included, as well.

For all of its beauty, A Plague Tale Requiem carries with it a more serious tone, featuring a very palpable sense of dread in a setting where death is omnipresent. Sony's PlayStation 5 offers an incredibly rich and immersive experience with a powerful story and intense action, all encapsulated in a visually stunning game.
