gamerant.com:

With 2022 already shaping up to be a huge year for games, it's easy to forget just how many major titles are still expected to release this year. Many games from previous years are finally receiving sequels. One such game is A Plague Tale: Innocence, a game that quickly became a cult classic when it first released in 2019. Very little is still known about its upcoming sequel A Plague Tale: Requiem, however. This might be about to change though, as the release date for A Plague Tale: Requiem has seemingly leaked.

A Plague Tale: Innocence was developed by Asobo Studio and first released in May 2019, another very busy year for games. Due to this, the game ended up flying under a lot of players' radars, with a small community quickly singing the game's praises and regarding it as one of the greatest games of the year. The game takes inspiration from AAA cinematic games such as The Last of Us, and follows a young girl named Amicia who is trying to protect her little brother, Hugo, from the French Inquisition during the Hundred-Year War.

A Plague Tale: Innocence TV Series Announced

A Plague Tale: Innocence was nominated for and won multiple awards after its release in 2019 and in July 2020, just over a year after its release, publisher Focus Home Interactive revealed that the game had sold over 1 million copies. In July 2021, the game received an enhanced port to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, alongside a cloud-based version for Nintendo Switch. It was then that the game's sequel, A Plague Tale: Requiem, was also announced. Now, due to a leak on the Microsoft Store, it appears that the release date for A Plague Tale: Requiem is set for June 17, 2022.

Awkwardly, the store listing claims the game's release date as June 17, 2021.
