This has been done on purpose by developer Focus Entertainment, which has only given fans slight teases of what they can expect when they venture back into the rat-infested setting of A Plague Tale: Requiem. Some details have been made clear, so that those who’ve been diligently following the game aren’t going in completely blind. For example, in a story trailer for A Plague Tale: Requiem, it was shown that Amicia will follow a darker path this time around.

Despite Focus Entertainment’s efforts to keep important plot details from being revealed, some spoilers for A Plague Tale: Requiem have been making their way online. These spoilers haven’t been appearing due to leaks, rather they’ve come about due to physical copies of the title being given out early by accident. This means that some retail stores are already selling A Plague Tale: Requiem, and some customers already have their hands on the game.
This has led to significant spoilers being dropped online, so for those who want to dodge details being revealed early, they may want to stay clear of some social media communities until they get their hands on the game. Previously, Focus Entertainment made a statement against its fans spoiling A Plague Tale: Requiem for their fellow gamers. The company urged players not to post about the story online so that others could experience the game’s narrative to its fullest.
Apart from its story, it seems that A Plague Tale: Requiem will contain some significant improvements compared to the original game. With the increased power of the PS5 and Xbox Series X, Focus Entertainment has stated it can achieve a lot more, including allowing around 300,000 rats to be on-screen at once. These rats could even come in handy for the player, especially when considering Hugo’s new powers in A Plague Tale: Requiem.
A Plague Tale: Requiem is available on October 18 for PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X/S.
