It’s been a while since we’ve seen anything from the Legacy of Kain universe. Defiance, a game that featured two playable characters in a twisting storyline, came out a few years ago; and, most recently, the pair returned as downloadable characters in Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. But now they could be making their full-fledged return.
Square Enix recently filed a new registration for a site called WarForNosgoth.com, which is a familiar locale taken from the series. Though no other details have been given, Square still holds the rights to the franchise, so an announcement of a new game could be very likely, particularly at an event like PAX East or E3. The only question now is, who will be the star – Kain, or Raziel, the Soul Reaver who’s taken the helm in the series after the release of Blood Omen.
We’ll know more in the months ahead, we’re sure, so be sure to check back for more details. In the meantime, it’s good to see this series hasn’t been forgotten. “‘Tis not over, Kain…”
