A French production company is turning it into a series.
Asobo Studio's A Plague Tale: Innocence is today's free game on the Epic Games Store, so you have 24 hours to grab it before it's replaced.
Asobo has said that they never considered making A Plague Tale sequel, and left the opening open-ended just in case. The studio also adds they spent a "considerable time" studying feedback from both players and critics for the follow-up, too.
For the month of September 2022, we have the complete list of games that will be removed from the Xbox Game Pass by September 15.
Playing The Artful Escape at the moment. Has to be the most inappropriately titled game I've ever played.
Flynn: Son of Crimson has been a very enjoyable game. I'm nearing the end after playing off and on for a week - definitely enough time for someone to beat it before it's off.
Level design and combat are great, and I love the music and art style, even if overall game design is a bit tropey (enemy variety = different color sprites, battle encounters feel like they're there to be there, the "Scourge" levels with the floating hammer chasing you are super cheesy).
Why do they remove titles? I’m less likely to jump into a huge game like FFXIII if I know it is only available for a limited time - and never knowing when that time might end.
Uh-oh. Looks like I better download A Plague Tale: Innocence and give it a playthrough soon.
A Plague Tale: Innocence is amazing. The story, characters, and the rats give off a true sense of horror. I will absolutely watch this show.
This might work
While I adore this game, the setting, and enjoy the dynamics between its characters, I *really* wish the "rat tornado" thing didn't exist. Everything else about the game feels rather grounded, but that just one aspect comes across as cheesy.
I think it could definitely work as a tv series.
I hope it's given to a French studio. Asobo knocked this completely out of the park, I played it in French and it gave it such a special charm.
The game has good premise but the actual story is pretty dumb. I'm not sure how the mainstream audience would react to the revelations.
