Aspyr Media and Crystal Dynamics have announced that Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered will release for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on March 31. The game initially released on March 3.
In a post, Aspyr Media state the following: “Switch players, the legacy returns to your hands. Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered launches on Nintendo Switch 1 & 2 March 31st! Revisit the legendary conflict, explore haunting environments, and relive one of gaming’s most iconic dark fantasy sagas wherever you go. Fate has not forgotten.”
Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. Final Weapon reviewed the game, giving it a 3.5/5. We described it as a “great re-release for a game that has aged quite poorly. You can now toggle a third-person perspective instead of the original fixed-camera, yet there are still major issues with the combat and some significant glitches scattered throughout the game. That said, the new quality-of-life features and the addition of cut content and lost media make this a must-buy for fans of the franchise, regardless of any shortcomings.”
Lastly, the Steam page describes Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered as follows:
Return to the dark world of Nosgoth as you take control of both the vampire Kain and his betrayed lieutenant, Raziel, two powerful entities bound by the conflict between free will and fate. Armed with legendary blades and supernatural abilities, battle through towering gothic spaces filled with enemies, puzzles, and long-buried secrets – where no victory comes without a cost. Experience a timeless dark fantasy reborn for a new generation.
