PS2 Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen 2

Product detailed description

Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen 2 is a third-person action-adventure game released exclusively for PlayStation 2 (and later for other platforms). The player takes on the role of Cain, a vampire anti-hero who awakens after centuries to a world that has long forgotten his rule. Weakened, betrayed and full of rage, he embarks on a journey of revenge to regain his powers and defeat the powerful enemies that have taken over Nosgoth. Gameplay combines melee combat, blood-sucking, solving simple puzzles and exploring a dark, gothic world.

The game's story takes place between the events of the original Blood Omen and Soul Reaver, expanding the mythology of the entire Legacy of Kain series. The atmosphere is heavily dark and melancholic, with an emphasis on the moral ambivalence of the characters and the fatality of the setting. Cain is not a typical hero - he is cruel, egotistical and driven by a lust for power, which makes him a fascinating protagonist. Blood Omen 2 differs from the other installments with a more action-oriented focus and simpler RPG elements, but stays true to its gothic style and strong story.
