More about A Plague Tale: Requiem
The press gave it 82; the people who bought it give it 91 percent. A 9-point gap in the buyer's favour.
3 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written September 2025 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 74 percent of the 726 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (boost, cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, so it runs on the handheld without fiddling.

Genuinely an amazing experience. the raw emotions, psychological development and how they deal with this horror is astounding. I've been blown away and heartbroken. Please play this
I really enjoyed the game but it feels repetitive in most areas. The game is hard as well in most stealth areas and sometimes it feel annoying. 8.5/10
