Resonance Reviews Go Live Across Three Platforms as Xbox Version Scores 88

Gamersky reports that media reviews for Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy are now live, with separate scores listed for three platforms: 79 on PS5, 88 on Xbox, and 84 on PC. Those numbers come from uneven sample sizes, with 34 outlets on PS5, 4 on Xbox, and 29 on PC, so the gap between platforms needs some caution.

At a glance, Xbox has the highest score. The sample size makes that number harder to read. The PS5 version sits at 79 from a much broader pool of 34 media reviews, while PC reaches 84 from 29 reviews. Xbox climbs to 88, but with only 4 reviews counted, it is harder to treat that figure as a settled picture of the game’s reception.

The strongest praise centres less on novelty than on delivery. Digital Chumps gave Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy a 95, saying it shows Asobo Studio’s passion for emotional storytelling and the craft to deliver it. The outlet also points to a sense of adventure and recurring surprise, fitting the impression of a cinematic action-adventure more interested in forward drive than open-world scale.

ComicBook scored it 90, highlighting its striking visuals, emotionally resonant storytelling, varied gameplay loop, smooth performance, and general lack of major technical issues. Among the reviews cited here, that is the most straightforward endorsement: strong presentation, a story with emotional weight, and enough mechanical variety to keep the journey moving.

Game Informer landed at 85, arguing that the game makes successful use of familiar genre elements while still telling a moving story. For longtime A Plague Tale players, that sounds less like a reinvention than a continuation of a recognizable framework, with the new protagonist and journey doing the work of renewal.

Push Square was more reserved, giving the PS5 version a 70. Its review says the game leans more heavily into combat and mostly succeeds in blending swordplay, puzzle-solving, and parkour, but also says a slow opening and frame-rate problems weaken the experience. That matters, especially for players who care about pacing and exploration, because a sluggish start can make even a promising world harder to warm to in its opening hours.

For buyers, Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy looks easiest to recommend to players who want a strong narrative action-adventure and are comfortable with a cinematic structure. Players looking for an open-ended, systems-led adventure should wait for more hands-on feedback. PS5 players should pay particular attention to frame-rate reports, while PC and Xbox currently sit higher. The Xbox score is impressive, but with only 4 outlets counted, it should not be treated as a complete picture yet.
