Rats abound in the latest dev diary for A Plague Tale: Innocence


Focus Home Interactive and Asobo Studios have released the next part of the dev diary series for A Plague Tale: Innocence. This time the diary takes a look at the plague itself, which is thrown around thanks to the giant swarm of rats.



Death and disease follow in the wake of the plague rats, and not one person - clergy, persecutor, royalty, or peasant - is safe. While for Asobo, rats were second to the main characters and the narrative focus, they became an integral part to the game’s structure and a core part of the experience, influencing every aspects of the design. The inquisition has begun to fight back, and their equipment is specific for stopping the plague, using light and armour to keep the rats at bay.

The game is getting set to release on May 14th for Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
