A Plague Tale: Requiem
Where once there was Innocence, now stands Requiem. While it’s a shame both games aren’t on Game Pass at the same time, the sequel has swapped places with the original, meaning you have the latest release in this rat-infested tale of misery.
Siblings Hugo and Amicia must sneak and battle their way through a Medieval world of rats, spookiness and death, attempting to reach a legendary island that should offer them safety. But most of all, it’s rats. Billions of them, undulating in wretched hordes, squirming and writhing around you. Video games!
Proving one of Ashley’s favorites of 2022, this brings along everything from the original, but then takes it to far greater extremes, both physically and emotionally.
A Good Match For: Those looking for an emotionally charged and visceral experience.
Not A Good Match For: Sufferers of musophobia.
Rough Average Playtime: 19.5 hours
