Nosgoth Chronicles Unveiled: Encyclopedia and TTRPG Forge a New Legacy

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

Crystal Dynamics, in collaboration with UK-based Lost in Cult and Cook and Becker, has announced two exciting additions to the Legacy of Kain universe: a comprehensive encyclopedia and a tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG). These projects follow the December 2024 release of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered.

The Book of Nosgoth: An Official Encyclopedia

The first project, The Book of Nosgoth, is an official encyclopedia penned by Nic Reuben of Rock Paper Shotgun. This in-depth guide explores the world of Nosgoth, detailing its locations, factions, inhabitants, and the epic Kain/Raziel conflict through a detailed timeline. Beyond the lore, the book will feature behind-the-scenes content including concept art, sketches, maps, and developer interviews, offering a comprehensive look at the creation of all five Legacy of Kain games.

Legacy of Kain: Scourge of Sarafan – A New TTRPG

The second project is Legacy of Kain: Scourge of Sarafan, a TTRPG set during the Sarafan Order’s war against vampires. Using the MÖRK BORG ruleset, this mechanics-light game allows players to take on the roles of Sarafan warrior priests. Players will experience high-stakes vampire hunts, uncover Nosgoth's hidden history, and venture into the spectral realm. The game features six playable classes, unique weapons and spells, a bestiary of creatures, and the diverse landscape of Nosgoth.

Pre-orders Now Open

Both The Book of Nosgoth and Legacy of Kain: Scourge of Sarafan are available for pre-order on Backerkit. A combined deluxe edition bundle, the Legacy of Kain Complete Edition, is also available.
