Part of what makes Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy<\/em> appealing is its stand-alone story. While Asobo Studio’s new spin-off game stars Sophia, a character introduced in 2022’s Requiem<\/em>, the narrative is set years before that game and bears little connection to it. Unraveling Sophia’s origins in an entirely new story, accompanied by a focus on action combat, makes for a perfect entry for newcomers who have no familiarity with past Plague Tale games. While this could easily be a one-and-done experience, a post-credits scene changes how important Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy<\/em> is to the series’ future.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Spoilers ahead for Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n The entirety of Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy<\/em> takes place 15 years before the events of 2019’s Plague Tale:<\/em> Innocence<\/em>. When the credits finish rolling, however, we find out that the entire game has taken place within a narrative frame. Sophia has been recounting the events of the game to an audience of one. That person is none other than Amicia de Rune, the protagonist of Innocence <\/em>and Requiem<\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Amicia’s appearance immediately tells us that the post-credits scene takes place at some point during the events of Requiem<\/em>. Her haircut and fresh scar narrow down the time even further, to right at the end of that game. Requiem<\/em>‘s final chapter has a short time jump that takes place after Resonance<\/em>‘s post-credits scene (as Amicia’s scar is now healed). It shows her and Sophia preparing to leave on a journey to find the next carrier of the plague following the death of the previous person who bore that title: Amicia’s brother Hugo. This sets up a direct sequel to Requiem<\/em>.<\/p>\n Requiem<\/em>, like Resonance<\/em>, had a post-credits scene of its own. The short teaser showed a baby infected with the Macula, the game’s plague. Audio cues that sound like hospital devices suggest the scene jumps centuries in the future to a modern-day setting. As in-game lore reveals that the Macula appears in a new carrier roughly every 800 years, that would suggest the scene occurs in about 2150. A game set after Requiem <\/em>could bring the series to our near-future.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The post-credits scene isn’t just about Amicia or the future. At the end of their conversation, Amicia asks Sophia how she met Arnaud, another character from Requiem<\/em>. Sophia tells her that it is a long story. Requiem <\/em>only vaguely gestures at Sophia and Arnaud’s first meeting, making it the perfect event to base another potential spin-off around.<\/p>\n At the end of Resonance<\/em>, Sophia still has 15 years until the events of Innocence<\/em>. That is a lot of time in which plenty of swashbuckling adventures could play out. Sophia is a fascinating character and watching her become the smuggler we know in Requiem <\/em>would be the perfect arc for a series of games. Whatever Asobo has planned for the future of Plague Tale, there are several exciting directions the series could go next.<\/p>\n Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy<\/em> is now available on PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n\n What Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy<\/em>‘s post-credits scene tells us about a third mainline game
