Focus Entertainment has released a short new trailer for Asobo Studio’s A Plague Tale: Requiem, which focuses on the crossbow. A new addition to Amicia’s arsenal, it’s used to snipe foes from afar while sneaking. However, it’s also good at mid-range against hardier enemies.
The crossbow also uses rope arrows, which can pull down environmental objects when attached, and fire arrows, which ignite enemies. Bolts are in the single digits, so you may have to be conservative when using them. Nevertheless, it’s a powerful tool that should complement one’s use of stealth and alchemy.
A Plague Tale: Requiem is out on October 18th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch via the cloud. It’s also coming to Game Pass at launch and will take about 15 to 18 hours to complete. System requirements have also been revealed, with 55 GB of installation space required. For more details on the game, check out our feature here.
