Survey Says: New Legacy of Kain Game Coming?

Posted on Friday, May 20 @ 13:10:47 Eastern by danielrbischoff

It's been a while since we've seen Kain or Raziel, but a consumer survey may have given up the ghost on a revival of the franchise. Square Enix became the Legacy of Kain publisher after they bought Eidos. Will the series have new life with Deus Ex and Tomb Raider?

Reader daverabbit stumbled over the possibility of a new Legacy of Kain game. He writes:

So I'm part of a website where you get paid to take online surveys and today I took one that asked me what I thought about different possible names for a Legacy of Kain game. Has there been any news about a new game in this series that I have missed or did I stumble across something here?

The four names were Obsidian Blood, Obsidian Sun, Dead Sun, and Revenant. They also asked if the names sounded good alone or tagged with any of the Legacy of Kain/Soul Reaver/Blood Omen names used previously.

Surveys I've taken in the past have had the product later show up on store shelves so I figured I would share this info with you guys.

With E3 2011 right around the corner, you can be sure that Game Revolution will issue any news on the long list of titles Square Enix is bringing to the big show. Check out our E3 2011 tag page for the latest.

Which of the above titles do you think is fitting of the next game in the Legacy of Kain?

    I'm hoping for a reboot. I like Blood Omen 1, but gameplay and presentation are completely antiquated.
    As for the proposed titles, I like Revenant.

    I think they all are pretty bad... something more at home with phrases from the games would be more apparent like New Aeon which I believe is used in the first part of blood omen. Or perhaps Wheel of Fate or a phrase the signifies it's downfall. Rise of the Hylden would work to.
