2022 Legacy of Kain Wiki Round Up

 Okay we're now officially into 2023 so I thought I'd round up some of the work that's been ongoing through the year. 

In terms of articles, you can find completed articles for  Ziegsturhl, Nachtholm, Nachtholm Cove, The Lake of Tears, Steinchencröe, Vasserbünde, Coorhagen and Blood Fountains: with a few more still waiting in the wings.

We've also been working on getting a number of interactive maps up and running so you can find those here. For more guidance, you can find the main world map  and going down a level maps for Blood Omen, Blood Omen 2 and Soul Reaver 2 - At the most detailed level you can find the individual BO1 area maps, which start at the Cemetery here.

Following suggestions we've also started our own discord server. It's still in its infancy, but you can find that here

If videos are your thing then 2022 has seen a wealth of LoK Video content. Firstly the Blood Omen alpha video series - first begun on the series 25th anniversary towards the end of 2021 - finally reached it's conclusion this year. You can find the completed playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLS-qhg60oOo1N3EHsbsM8DV5bmXUyJ-tg


My Previous post about it is probably the best round up of the full video list.

On top of that there was also another Soul Reaver build released with a few extra bits, so we added a video for that. 


Sadly there was little of note in other builds that surfaced this year, but there is still hope that there's more our there. 

In terms of the Arcane Tomes lore videos we completed videos on Ariel, the Champions of Prophecy, The Hylden and The Sarafan


We've started a small sub-series on Vampire Hunting orders so expect Moebius's Mercenary Army to follow soon. 

Of course among fasn there have been numerous newsworthy bits to pay attention to but the biggest news in the Embracer purchase of LoK being finalised, the control of LoK being given back to Crystal Dynamics and the subsequent survey which saw a massive 100,000 responses and lit up hope for the series for the first time in years. We'll see where that leads, but for now I'll leave you with the recent NoClip Crystal Dynamics documentary, which featured a nice section on LoK and an ending guaranteed to make LoK fans smile. 

Happy 2023 everyone!
