Developers A Plague Tale: Requiem praised PlayStation 5 for power and DualSense

Studio Asobo talked about how the additional features of PlayStation 5 affected A Plague Tale: Requiem.

In an interview in the latest issue of PLAY magazine, level designer Kevin Pinson explained that an important component of A Plague Tale is working with lighting, and that the hardware part of the PS5 allowed them to make a big leap in this area.

In addition, the team actively uses the features of the DualSense controller. "The power of the PS5 allows us to place more light sources and do more things with it.

From the point of view of the game engine, using light as a game mechanics is very expensive, but the current generation allows us to use more dynamic lighting.

Requiem also depends a lot on soundscapes and the physical environment, so we try to convey this in a tactile way. Playing with DualSense on PS5 is really great.

I'm glad that soon players will be able to evaluate it themselves and share their impressions with us! ".

In the same conversation, Pinson stated that the duration of the A Plague Tale: Requiem was approximately 15-18 hours. The project will be released on October 18 this year.
