Legacy Of Kain: Defiance Remastered

Crystal Dynamics and PlayEveryWare developed Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered. Basically, this dark fantasy adventure brings a beloved classic back to life for modern hardware. You play as two fierce rivals who must fight through the dying, bloody world of Nosgoth. Consequently, the game perfectly blends fast sword combat with deep, dark story building.

About the Game

First, the game gives you total control over two unique anti-heroes. Therefore, you spend half your time playing as the vampire Kain, and the other half playing as the wraith Raziel. Furthermore, both characters possess wildly different magical skills and fighting styles. As a result, the gameplay constantly shifts between pure action and clever puzzle solving. Moreover, the remaster fixes the terrible old camera system. Thus, you can finally swing the camera around freely while fighting huge groups of enemies.

Caractéristiques principales

Dual Heroes: Specifically, Kain uses brutal physical attacks and telekinesis, while Raziel shifts into the spirit world to pass through solid walls. Thus, mastering both characters is completely vital to winning.
Modern Graphics: Next, the studio fully upgraded all the old textures and character models. Indeed, switching between the shiny new HD graphics and the original PS2 visuals only takes a single button press.
Vampire Combat: Also, your health constantly drains while you explore the levels. Consequently, you must violently suck the blood or souls out of your enemies to stay alive.
Lost Content: Meanwhile, the game includes awesome new bonus materials. For instance, exploring the lore reader and playing previously cut levels gives old fans a totally fresh experience.
