Latest Updates from Our Project:

Onto the final approvals!
2 days ago – Wed, Jul 22, 2026 at 05:10:53 AM

Hello!

We hope you are keeping well wherever you are!

We are very pleased to say that progress continues on both Legacy of Kain: The Book of Nosgoth and Legacy of Kain: Scourge of the Sarafan and we are closer than ever to making this project a reality.

Since our last update, Legacy of Kain: Scourge of the Sarafan has been through its last checks and final approvals, and is now being prepared for print. We expect to send it off to the printers at the end of the month. Other items like the dice and dice bag have been in production for awhile so that everything is ready at a similar time.

Legacy of Kain: The Book of Nosgoth is now also in an excellent place, with a complete book draft now being refined ahead of sharing with Crystal Dynamics for final approvals. All being well, we expect to send The Book of Nosgoth off to the printers at the end of next month. 

We are awaiting an updated schedule from our print partners based on the plans above, and will update you in the next week or two once we have firmer dates. We know that Late September shipping isn’t going to be feasible, but we are doing all we can to get it as close as possible to that estimate. There are external factors that can always influence the dates we communicate, but we are keen to provide as accurate a picture as we can with you. 

We are really excited to get Legacy of Kain: The Book of Nosgoth and Legacy of Kain: Scourge of the Sarafan into your hands. It’s been a long journey, but the finish line is in sight and we are grateful to you all for your support.

Pledge upgrades!
2 months ago – Wed, May 20, 2026 at 10:02:40 AM

Good morning, all!

Thank you for your response to our recent update and to everyone who has completed their survey! 

We have seen the comments regarding pledges upgrades and have made some changes on the backend to allow upgrades to the Deluxe edition too. This should be available to you now by clicking on the reward under ‘Your Pledge Level’, as seen below:


Once you have clicked on that, you will be presented with a window pop-up displaying your pledge information. In the top right corner, you’ll see ‘Switch Pledge Levels?’ as indicated below:

From there, you will be presented with the upgrade options: 


For those of you who backed us early with your Early Bird options, it’s a little more convoluted to enable upgrades at the Early Bird pricing. Please reach out to us in the comments and we will facilitate that change manually for you! 

We have enabled Early Bird Add-On prices for those who previously backed an Early Bird tier. That should be available to you as normal through the Pre-Order Store/Survey.

We will be looking to lock in orders on the 1st July, so please make any changes by then!

Work continues on both Legacy of Kain: The Book of Nosgoth and Legacy of Kain: Scourge of the Sarafan and we will update in due course but, for now, just know we are very grateful for your continued support and affording us the opportunity to work on this franchise. It’s a joy for so many of us. 

Thank you!

Pre-Order Store and Survey
3 months ago – Wed, Apr 15, 2026 at 09:58:54 AM

Good evening!

Thank you for the kind words on our update from last week. We appreciate how frustrating not having all the information can be, but we aim to be as transparent as possible in our progress, potential delays, and new announcements.

We are delighted to share that the pre-order store is now LIVE and surveys are going out over the next 24 hours. These have been long requested updates and we are so pleased to say both are finally here. This gives you the opportunity to add to or change your orders, and for those who missed out during the campaign to make a purchase. The items you see in the store are all the items currently in development and will be the ones available to add to your order at this time. Additionally, you can find Legacy of Kain: Scourge of the Sarafan on Lost In Cults and IGN's stores. 

Pre-Order Store

Thank you for your patience here. If you have any questions or need any support in making these changes, don’t hesitate to reach out to our customer support.

We hope this update brings you as much joy as it does us. We endeavour to keep you informed as the project progresses, and we look forward to sharing more details in the near future.

Shipment and the encyclopedia update!
4 months ago – Fri, Apr 10, 2026 at 01:30:08 AM

Good morning!

Thank you for the kind words on our update last month. We are thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to work on such a comprehensive and exciting project, and the messages of support and understanding make the world of difference.

We are keen to keep you as updated as we can throughout the development and production process. We know how long fans have waited for anything Legacy of Kain related, and we know how important it is to fans of the franchise that it is treated with the care and attention it deserves. Our mission is aligned here!

In a previous update, some raised concerns that the photos indicated we aren’t as far along as people would expect. We want to allay any fears here. We are still on track to ship in 2026, and these production steps are a normal part of our process at this stage. With that said, we do acknowledge that Q2 is fast approaching and we do need to provide a shipping update. In order to make this the very best it can be, we will need more time. Ordinarily, we would wait until we have a more concrete date before sharing news of a delay, however in the interest of keeping you updated and bringing you on the journey with us, we will be moving shipping to late Q3 2026. As we continue to progress with all aspects of the project, we will be able to provide a more accurate window of time.

Another topic of discussion has been the content included in the encyclopedia. Please note that Legacy of Kain: The Book of Nosgoth will contain characters, lore and works from the following games:

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (1996)
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver (1999)
Soul Reaver 2 (2001)
Blood Omen 2 (2002)
Legacy of Kain: Defiance (2003)
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered (2024)

We hope this update provides some of the information you’ve been looking for. We endeavour to keep you informed as the project progresses, and we look forward to sharing more details in the near future.


Work continues!
