A Plague Tale: Requiem
A Plague Tale: Requiem is a stealth-survival horror adventure that serves as a direct sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence. Players continue the harrowing journey of Amicia and Hugo de Rune, two young siblings navigating a plague-ridden France in the 14th century. The game features stunning visuals, intense action sequences, and a gripping narrative that explores themes of family, resilience, and the darkness within.
For our first game, we booted up A Plague Tale at 1440p and straight away, we can see the 5070 coming in with identical performance to the averages as the 4070 Ti, though, and this is something we’ve seen quite a lot with the 50 series, but the 1% lows suffer quite dramatically. Regardless, we do still see a 9% uplift in performance over the 4070 SUPER, 26% more than the RTX 4070, and a 52% increase over the ageing RTX 3070.
As we move up to 4K, we again see similar performance to the 4070 Ti, separated by just 2 frames per second, but again, that 1% looks frankly awful, though we have seen similar in other games on other 50 series cards being rectified through driver updates and game optimisations. That aside, we do see a 6% uplift over the 4070 SUPER, a 21% increase in frames over the 4070 non-SUPER and a 55% improvement over the RTX 3070, which also seemed to suffer in the lows quite a bit.
