A Plague Tale: Requiem is an action-adventure stealth game developed by Asobo Studio and published by Focus Entertainment. It is the sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence (2019), and follows siblings Amicia and Hugo de Rune who must look for a cure to Hugo's blood disease in Southern France while fleeing from soldiers of the Inquisition and hordes of rats that are spreading the black plague. The game was released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on 18 October 2022. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Asobo Studio in-house engine. We test using the Ultra preset, DX12 API.

A Plague Tale: Requiem is another game that typically runs best on Nvidia GPUs, but even then, at 1440p there's nothing to split the 5070 Ti and 9070 XT, while the new AMD GPU is 4% faster than the 7900 XTX.

At 4K, it's still within 2% of the 5070 Ti, while performance comes in 14% faster than the 7900 XT.
