Legacy Of Kain: Defiance Rises Again With New Remaster

Legacy Of Kain: Defiance Rises Again With New Remaster https://ift.tt/pPxndjY The Legacy of Kain series is rising from its slumber once again, as today's State of Play revealed not one but two projects that will see players return to Nosgoth. Fans of the classic games can look forward to a remaster of Legacy of Kain: Defiance when it launches on March 3 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Switch.

It's sometimes been the case where a game on another maker-game platform like Roblox gets so popular that an outside studio acquires it in a buyout.
