Crystal Dynamics and Lost in Cult Announce New Legacy of Kain Projects: Encyclopedia and TTRPG

Following the December 2024 release of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered, Crystal Dynamics has partnered with Lost in Cult and Cook and Becker to expand the Legacy of Kain universe with two exciting new projects.

The Book of Nosgoth: An Official Encyclopedia

The first project, The Book of Nosgoth, is a comprehensive encyclopedia detailing the world of Nosgoth. Written by Nic Reuben (Rock Paper Shotgun), it promises in-depth coverage of locations, factions, characters, and a detailed timeline of the Kain and Raziel saga. Beyond lore, it will feature behind-the-scenes content including concept art, sketches, maps, and developer interviews, providing a deep dive into the creation of all five Legacy of Kain games.

Legacy of Kain: Scourge of Sarafan – A New TTRPG

The second project, Legacy of Kain: Scourge of Sarafan, is a tabletop role-playing game set during the Sarafan Order's crusade against vampires. Utilizing the MÖRK BORG ruleset, it offers a mechanics-light, high-stakes experience where players become Sarafan warrior priests. Players will choose from six classes, wield unique weapons and spells, battle a bestiary of nocturnal creatures, and explore the landscape of Nosgoth, undertaking vampire hunts and delving into the spectral realm.

Pre-orders Now Available

Both The Book of Nosgoth and Legacy of Kain: Scourge of Sarafan are available for pre-order on Backerkit, including a combined "Complete Edition" bundle offering deluxe versions of both.
