The year is coming to a close, but December offers some of the biggest launches in years with Marvel Rivals, Path of Exile 2 early access, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Infinity Nikki, and more. Add Aspyr’s Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 and 2 Remastered to the list, with the Embracer Group (its parent company) revealing that pre-orders are “much stronger than expectations so far.”

During the company’s interim report for Q2 fiscal year 2025 (covering the period ending September 30th), CEO Lars Wingefors said, “For the Legacy of Kain, Soul Reaver 1 and 2 Remastered, coming ready in December, that is performing on pre-ordering basis much stronger than expectations so far.”

This is good news for franchise fans waiting for a sequel, revival, remake, remaster, or really anything over the years. The remaster does more than just visually improve the two titles. It overhauls the appearance of several bosses, like Melchiah, Rahab, Dumah, and Kain. New features like the Map and Compass (which can be turned off) to help guide players have also been added alongside a collection tracker to keep track of health and energy upgrades.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 and 2 Remastered launches on December 10th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC at $29.99.
