New Story Trailer For ‘A Plague Tale: Innocence’ And Pre-Order

Keeping the hype going, Focus Home Interactive and Asobo Studios have announced that their upcoming game, A Plague Tale: Innocence is available for Pre-order now. Along with the announcement comes a new story trailer showing the heartache that’s to come in the game’s story. The trailer shows how tranquil life was for the game’s heroes, the De Rune siblings Amicia and Hugo, before the hell that is the black plague came knocking on their doorstep. This time the trailer has a distinct focus on the Inquisitors than the plague rats. A Plague Tale: Innocence will be coming out May 14th for all gaming platforms.

Though the idea and imagery of a moving mountain of sleek fur, wormy tails, and deafening squeaks gnawing away at you instill fear and disgust, our own fears give these little dudes a little too much
