The Legacy of Kain license is not dead, in fact it will return with a nice surprise for early fans.
For far too long, almost 20 years, the driver’s license was forgotten Heir of Cain (and or Soul Robber) will finally have the right to make a comeback. Fans have been asking for a new game, a new project for years. Now Crystal Dynamics, in collaboration with an army of other artists, unveils a surprise that should surely delight fans of the franchise. Unfortunately, not a video game, and we are the first to be disappointed, but actually a prequel to the universe.
Legacy of Kain will soon be back with a surprise you will love
A prequel in the form of a graphic novel, designed by several artists and fans of the license with the wise advice of Crystal Dynamics, the father of Legacy of Kain. Her name, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver – The dead will risea graphic novel that tells us more about the world of the franchise, its past and its characters. A previously unpublished story and still very mysterious. The studio that launched the license collaborates with Bit Bot Media on this new novel project, not to mention the army of artists who take care of everything.
When writing we find Angie Hodapp (universe) and Joshua Viola (Denver Moon), while the picture shows the hands of Juan Samu (Godzilla), Johnny Bush (Rob Zombie) and Ninja Jo (Stranger Things), who does the heavy lifting. We can also highlight the talents of Jeremiah Lambert (Transformers) or Dave Rapoza (determination) and Aaron Lovett (Monster Train), who is particularly responsible for security.
It is also said that the novel would contain new elements that have never been revealed or used before. These will be more than official, since Crystal Dynamics is taking care of this entire part, in addition to supporting the narrative direction of the work.
A license that has been inactive for too long
If we don’t have the right to a new game, we will at least have an official book that is firmly anchored in the story of Legacy of Kain. This novel is funded through a participation campaign and you can already sign up Backerkit to keep up to date with all the latest news. However, we will have to wait for a new video game. Embracer now has the rights and the company is in the process of restructuring.
Crystal Dynamics, on the other hand, will definitely not be able to take on the work until the next Tomb Raider adventures, currently in development, are completed. In other words, you’ll have to be patient before you can play a new Legacy of Kain.
