So you’ve seen it, since it came out, A Plague Tale Requiem at all over a million players on all platformsa colossal and impressive result for the French studio, especially when we remember that the first opus had not reached this milestone until more than a year after its release.
However, this result must be put into perspective since thewe are talking here about players and not salesbecause it is also necessary to take into consideration the availability of the game, since its launch, in the offer Xbox Game Pass from Microsoft, which must have helped achieve this figure. But the performance is still impressive for a game that didn’t have a marketing and development budget as solid as a AAA-type production. God of War Ragnarok.
We strongly advise you to try this production which does not have to be ashamed of certain other experiences due to its poignant scenario, in the heart of the French and Provençal countryside in the company of our two young heroes Amicia and Hugo. Don’t forget that you can find our test of A Plague Tale Requiemour complete guide, as well as the complete walkthrough of the game, pending why not a possible third opus in a few years.
