“Great Month nearly bought Plague’s Tale Requiem yesterday,” one gamer said.

“So glad I held off.”

Another commented: “Two games I want to play and one I’ve already played and thought was superb (A Plague Tale: Requiem). Solid month.”

The Sun’s game reviewer described it as “everything a sequel should be”.

“The story is fantastic, the progression system makes sense, and the environments are as stunning as they are eerie,” Georgina Young wrote.
