Square Enix has finally revealed the long-rumored new entry to the long forgotten Legacy of Kain series and it’s a competitive free-to-play multiplayer game called Nosgoth.
Nosgoth offers competitive team-based multiplayer with humans vs. vampire action, played from a third-person perspective derive from Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver.
“At Psyonix, we’re passionate about team-based multiplayer games,” reads a statement on the Nosgoth blog. “When Square Enix approached us to help create Nosgoth, we were excited to use our experience working on titles like Bulletstorm, Gears of War, Mass Effect 3, and Unreal Tournament 2004 to deliver something unique in the multiplayer genre.”
“We made the decision to go to free-to-play to break down barriers and let as many players into the game as possible. One of the key goals has been to create a fair experience that doesn’t penalise players who don’t spend money in the game, as such Nosgoth doesn’t include items, weapons or abilities that are inherently better (aka supremacy goods).”
Nosgoth will be coming to the PC through Steam with a release date not announced yet. A closed beta of Nosgoth is on the site’s official website.
