A Plague Tale is getting a sequel

According to XboxSquad, A Plague Tale sequel is in development by the Asobo Studio. These are the same developers of the the first game Innocence. The game will be officially announced next year and it’s scheduled to be released in 2022.

Here is the official statement:

“Focus Home Interactive and Asobo are very proud of the critical and public reception of A Plague Tale: Innocence, and the sales. We’re delighted to have received a solid number of awards and nominations, including for Best Narrative at the Game Awards next week. We want to pursue our efforts to make sure the game gets even more attention from players and we will thus keep promoting that title as it deserves.

“Of course, we announced last year we are partnering with Asobo for a future project but never confirmed if it was a sequel to A Plague Tale or not – and will give more details on that title when the right time comes.”

A Plague Tale: Innocence has received great ratings. It had a great story, in a fitting atmosphere, with a superb character development. The combination of exploration, stealth, combat and puzzles was mixed masterfully.

The only complain I had was the uneven performance on launch. Here’s hoping the next game will stay true to the original formula and hopefully be even better than his predecessor.

Thanks XboxSquad and Eurogamer.

  1. Finally some worthy news. Fantastic game,very deserving of a sequel. I hope in the sequel they grow to be bad azzes.

    1. There are plenty of games that run on UE4 on consoles, also A Plague Tale doesn’t run on UE4, it’s a proprietary engine

  2. Great game, a sequel means it sold well for an AA game, no Epic BS, the game is on Steam and GOG and from the look of it, it worked well. After reading the Remedy’s bullsh*t today trying to justifie their awful decisions and the low sales of Control, i’m just smiling, another proof that store exclusivity for a 3rd party game is a really bad decision for a long term run, being baited by some direct cash and lock you game to remain unseen, and perhaps hated just for the sake of being exclusive, for the devs, it’s like getting a hard hangover after party

  3. Awww yis. Give me more classic game experiences over AAA /earlyacces/lootbox/mtx/seasonpass/fiftydifferenteditions bs any day.

  4. Saw this news this morning, I am very happy for the team they deserve their success and to be able to make part two! Also it’s pretty awesome they made their own game engine.

    Loved the first game, can’t wait for number 2. Oh yeah in case some don’t have it yet and want it, it’s actually DRM free on GOG(was half off too) so make sure you get that version and own it for life.

  5. Very nice! Really liked this game and some of the visuals are incredible. Glad to see that they are making a sequel.
