Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy Lands Near 80 on Metacritic With Critics Split on Its Combat Turn

Asobo's Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy launched August 27 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, and hit Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on day one. The prequel trades the series' stealth for action-forward sword combat. Reviews sit around 80 to 85 on Metacritic depending on platform. Critics praised the Minoan Sphere, a light-bending puzzle and survival tool, plus the Uncharted-style adventure, but flagged a short runtime, uneven combat, and technical rough spots.
