Asobo Studio has revealed that A Plague Tale: Innocence, its intriguingly grim "single-player co-op" adventure, is coming to PC, Xbox One, and PS4 on May 14th.
A Plague Tale follows the tribulations of Amicia and her sickly 5-year-old brother Hugo, children of a nobleman, both forced to flee their castle home with the Inquisition in full pursuit. As they attempt to navigate a fog-shrouded, plague-ridden 14th century France, danger comes in the form of writhing, ravenous rat hordes, invading English soldiers, and the aforementioned Inquisition - with avoidance forming the basis for the game's stealthy, dual-character puzzling.
But while the mood is bleak, Asobo hopes that the central relationship between the two siblings - apparently somewhat influenced by The Last of Us - will give the game its soul.
