It’s great to see that Asobo Studio’s next game continues to embrace the plague-themed style – as the franchise title suggests.

Set 15 years before A Plague Tale: Requiem, you play as Sophia, a fierce young plunderer on the run, determined to uncover the secrets of her past. Dive into an original story blending combat, myth, and fate with a brand-new take on the A Plague Tale universe. Sophia’s journey leads her to Minotaur Island, where she must face deadly trials, navigate treacherous trails, and solve puzzles while fighting to stay one step ahead of the army chasing her. However, the real challenge lies ahead, as the terrifying creature lurking behind the myth will soon resonate with her. As you journey deeper into the heart of the island, 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 your enemies. Perfect your parries and unleash powerful strikes to survive deadly encounters. Shift between Sophia’s medieval era and ancient Minoan times, where echoes of the past shape the battles of the present. Unfold a new story in the A Plague Tale universe through the intertwined destinies of two heroes linked by fate and the mysterious legacy of the Macula.

Guided by the knowledge in your notebook, follow your crew’s footsteps and explore a richly detailed world. Unravel its secrets and face deadly trials. Solve ingenious puzzles by manipulating light with a stolen Minoan sphere – a force woven by Daedalus into the island’s very heart. It is said that only a few returned from the island. A restless presence lurks in the shadows. It follows you, seemingly knowing your every move as it hunts through the island’s depths. Every step is a risk. Every pause could be your last. You can’t stop; you can only hide, outsmart, and push forward. Can you survive each trial, or will you join those who never returned?

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy will be released on August 27 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC.
