A Plague Tale: Requiem - Collector's Edition

About

A Plague Tale: Requiem is a narrative-driven action game set during the Black Death. You play as Amicia, protecting her brother Hugo as they flee across medieval France. The story balances tense stealth against hordes of infected and giant rats with moments of quiet survival. Resource management and timed decisions shape the journey, while the haunting visuals and historical setting deepen the emotional weight. Combat is sparse but impactful, focusing on evasion and calculated strikes. The world feels lived-in, with crumbling villages and desperate refugees amplifying the sense of danger. The Collector's Edition bundles the game with a detailed Amicia and Hugo statue, a steelbook case, and art books. Critics gave the base game an 82 on Metacritic, praising its atmosphere and writing. Players often highlight the bond between the siblings as a standout element, with 87% of user reviews on Steam calling it "heartfelt" and "memorable." The statue is a fan favorite, with pre-orders selling out quickly in 2022. This edition appeals to those wanting a physical keepsake alongside the story.
