Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is an action-adventure game developed by Asobo Studio, set 15 years before the events of A Plague Tale: Requiem. The story centers on Sophia, a young looter and fighter whom fans will recognize from Requiem. After a heist in Venice goes catastrophically wrong, she flees alongside her trusted companion Leni to a mysterious island closely tied to the myth of the Minotaur. Along the way, she tries to uncover why she has been haunted since childhood by visions of a long-forgotten era.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions 

Is Resonance A Plague Tale 3?

No. Resonance is not a direct sequel to Requiem but rather a standalone prequel within the A Plague Tale universe, telling the backstory of Sophia.

No. Asobo and Focus Entertainment explicitly describe Resonance as a self-contained story that can be understood without prior knowledge. That said, familiarity with the series will help players pick up on references to Sophia and the Macula.

No. Asobo talks about various zones and larger areas to explore, but not an open world. The structure resembles a linear to semi-linear, story-driven action-adventure game.

Yes, from day one. The game also supports Xbox Play Anywhere.

The Standard Edition costs $49.99 on PC and $59.99 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Pre-ordering adds the Heritage Pack at no extra cost, which includes a Minoan sword, Alec’s pendant and a digital in-game artbook.

The Exclusive Collector’s Box is priced at $169 in the US – but contains no game. Buyers must purchase the Standard Edition separately, bringing the total to at least $228.99 before shipping. The box includes a 23 cm individually numbered figure of Sophia and Theseus, a Collector’s SteelBook, three art prints, a metal ring replica and an exclusive pre-order bonus item. Delivery is estimated for the end of 2026, well after the game’s release date.
