Controls for Legacy of Kain™ Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered

by Fernando Diaz / Articles, Game Controls & Hotkeys / 13 Nov 2024

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered is here to bring Raziel’s revenge-fueled adventure back into the fray, and, well-let’s just say it’s not for the faint of heart. Play as a betrayed vampire now turned wraith, diving deep into the dark and twisted landscapes of Nosgoth, solving mind-bending puzzles, and tearing limb from limb your former kin with claws and telekinetic energy. What’s not to love? Oh, right, Kain. The guy who had backstabbed you in the first place will still lurk in the background and yet won’t make things any easier.

While Kain is not playable in Soul Reaver, you can still feel his presence, working behind the scenes as Raziel hunts him down for some well-deserved payback. The good news, though, is that Soul Reaver 2 brings Kain back into the spotlight where things only get more intense.

With the remastered edition, you can switch between classic and updated visuals, and new controls will make sure you’re ready for everything Nosgoth throws at you.

So, ready to put that soul-stealing wraith power to good use? Just remember: revenge is a dish best served with a side of shifting realms and epic vampire showdowns!
