As is typical for the E3 season, there were plenty of leaks leading up to E3 2021. Many of these leaks turned out to be completely false, whereas other leaks were actually true. One of the accurate leaks revolved aroundA Plague Tale: InnocencesequelA Plague Tale: Requiem, which a leaker had accurately said would be revealed at the Xbox E3 2021 event, and that it would also be a day one Xbox Game Pass game.
Resetera user Deluxera made a variety of claims about thePlague Talegames, citing a source that was apparently reliable. Besides accurately leakingA Plague Tale: Requiemcoming to Xbox Game Pass, Deluxera also said that anext-gen remaster ofA Plague Tale: Innocencewas also in the works. That game wasn’t announced during Xbox’s E3 2021 event, but it has since been confirmed at the Xbox Games Showcase Extended.

What makes this even more likely is thePlague Tale: Innocencenext-gen release date. It was confirmed at the Xbox Games Showcase Extended Event thatA Plague Tale: Innocencewill launch for next-gen consoles on Tuesday, July 6. As it so happens, Tuesday, July 6 is exactly when the new free PS Plus games will be available, with thefree PS Plus games for June 2021being cycled out for them.
Since the cat is more or less out of the bag at this point, it’s a bit surprising that Sony hasn’t gone ahead and confirmedA Plague Tale: Innocenceas one of the free PS Plus games for July 2021. There’s always a chance that it won’t actually be one of the free games, of course, but assuming it is, fans can expect it to be revealed by Wednesday, June 30, as Sony usually waits until the last Wednesday of every month to reveal the next batch of free PS Plus games.
