Overview
- The game will launch on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S on August 27, 2026, as the third entry in the Plague Tale franchise.
- Resonance is a prequel set roughly 15 years before A Plague Tale: Requiem and centers on Sophia, a pirate smuggler who appears in the prior game.
- Trailers show the title leaning into direct melee combat with swordplay rather than the stealth-and-rat mechanics that defined earlier series entries.
- Asobo Studio develops the game and Focus Entertainment publishes it, continuing the partnership that followed strong sales for the first two games.
- The new setting and combat focus mark a clear change for the series, so player and critic response to the action shift will be the key thing to watch after launch.
