In a new press release, a selection of new screenshots from A Plague Tale: Innocence have been revealed, and they're just as bleak as you'd expect.
Developed by Asobo Studio, this gloomy game is set in 14th century France during a period of war and disease. On top of that is an enormous plague of rats that's ravaging the country, and you must guide orphans Amicia and Hugo through it in order to survive.
"In today's images, witness just one of many desecrated sites that saw clashes between the armies of France and England. In the midst of hundreds of piled corpses, hordes of rats teem over the bodies and leave little hope for the survivors. In the midst of this chaos, Amicia and Hugo have just one chance of escaping with their lives. The faint glow of the flame Amicia holds appears to be the only thing that repels A Plague Tale: Innocence’s swarming menace."
It's looking wonderfully dark, and the swarm of rats looks suitably unsettling with hundreds of glowing eyes amid the horde. A Plague Tale: Innocence is coming to PS4 in 2019.

This is right up my alley, really tasty screenshots!
This looks like it is a lot of potential. If done right, this could advance games as art, if not, well it was a good try.
That looks incredible. Are these really captured from PS4? I'd really like to see this in motion.
Praise the sun.
My guess... They die at the end of the game.
2019? Darn I thought that this was a 2018 release. I say that because I've seen footage and it looks really interesting. Simple puzzle solving but with loads of horrific atmosphere.
Have we actually seen any gameplay of it yet? Looks super interesting.
Kingdom Come was too bleak for me, this ... even more so.
What kind of game will this be? I cant figure it out
Looks incredible, but if I've gotta kill rats, even infested ones, I'll have to sit this one out. I like rats!
This looks amazing but i have a feeling its a case of the ol bait and switcheroo lol. Its not going to look THIS good when we actually get it. Hope to be proven wrong. Graphics arent everything luckly so either way im very much down to play this!
@Mikethemosher I reckon something along the lines of a Naughty Dog game?
