A new Legacy of Kain may happen

Another Legacy of Kain game may appear this generation of consoles, says Crystal Dynamics. The creators of this action game series are seriously thinking about returning to this franchise.

Crystal Dynamics is seriously thinking about resurrecting Legacy of Kain series, the studio’s senior designer Michael Brinker told finder.com.au. Although the developer is now busy working at upcoming Rise of the Tomb Raider, some members of the studio are eager to go back to their roots. Asked what chance there is for a new, single player Legacy of Kain releasing this generation, Brinker answered:

It’s a 50/50 chance. We have in-house developers who really want to make that game. It’s interesting because people look back at our history and our franchises and see that we have some really great iconic IPs. So gamers wonder; ‘where are they and what are they doing?’ Well we’re always tossing around and talking about ideas [of bringing them back]. It really is 50/50.”

Legacy of Kain is an action game series, created by Crystal Dynamics, originated back in 1993 with Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain. The franchise spawned five core installments to date, the last one (Legacy of Kain: Defiance) released in 2003. There is also Nosgoth, an online free-to-play spin-off, which appeared on Steam as an Early Access game in January, 2015.
