I’m so excited! Crystal Dynamics and Bit Bot Media just announced that Legacy of Kain: Ascendance is coming to pretty much everything – PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2 (yes, really!), the regular Switch, and PC! It’s launching on March 31st, and I can’t wait to play it.

Here is an overview of the collection, via Crystal Dynamics:

About

Legacy of Kain: Ascendance is a quick-paced, 2D action game where you’ll be jumping and fighting your way through levels. It focuses on moving upwards, smooth combat, and relies on your skills to succeed.

Explore the dark fantasy world of Nosgoth with stunning animated cutscenes and detailed pixel art. Each level combines challenging environments, clever puzzles, and exciting combat. Soar through the skies, battle enemies, and uncover a lost history in a land of fallen kingdoms, eerie ruins, and broken timelines.

Key Features

  • 2D Action Platformer – Chain melee strikes, evasive dashes, and supernatural attacks in fluid, vicious combat.
