Asobo Studio’s subsequent Plague Story sport is a prequel arriving in 2026

Asobo Studio introduced on the Xbox Games Showcase that its new entry within the Plague Story collection is a prequel set 15 years earlier than its final sport. Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is concentrated on the smuggler Sophia from A Plague Tale: Requiem, and is scheduled to be launched in 2026.

Based mostly on the transient description from the sport’s trailer, Resonance follows a younger Sophia as she “seeks her independence as a fierce plunderer within the unforgiving world of the 14th century.” The trailer reveals Sophia on the run, escaping battle, exploring mysterious ruins, and usually being pursued by hazard, alongside extra ominous vignettes showcasing Asobo’s sometimes lush visuals.

If surviving a plague made the primary two video games appear grim, escaping a flaming ship or battling in a gladiatorial enviornment does not make Sophia’s previous adventures appear all that extra for enjoyable. Nonetheless, there’s little or no to go on, and fairly a bit extra to be taught earlier than Resonance: A Plague Story Legacy comes out in 2026.

Resonance: A Plague Story Legacy is presently set to be launched on Xbox Collection X / S, PS5, PC and Xbox Cloud Streaming. It will even be accessible from day one by way of Xbox Recreation Move.
