Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain Now Available on PSN
Square Enix have announced today that the classic PSOne title Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain is available to download in Europe via the PlayStation Network Store.
The game, developed by Silicon Knights (the same studio behind Too Human and X-Men: Destiny), was originally released on the PSOne back in 1996, and sees you take on the role of the vampire Kain as he tries to restore the Pillars of Nosgoth (the world in which the game is set). The action is viewed from a top-down perspective, and as Kain you have access to a variety of weapons, magic, and shape-shifting forms such as the ability to appear as a werewolf or human peasant. Unfortunately the peasant form doesn’t allow you to till the fields in order to work for a living; rather it provides you with the means to fool townspeople into talking to you.
Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain is the first in the Legacy of Kain series, which also includes both Soul Reaver games (the first of which is also available on the PSN).
The game is playable on both PlayStation 3 and PSP, and is priced at €5.99 / £4.79.

Hello! I'm Alex Wozniak and I'm a writer here at GodisaGeek. I've been gaming ever since my cousin gifted me an Amiga 500 at the tender age of 3 (or was it 4?) and I haven't looked back since. Currently, I'm enjoying playing games on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo DSi.
Apart from gaming I enjoy watching Formula 1, snooker, and darts, though I doubt I'll ever enjoy golf, cricket, or lawn bowls. I also support both Bradford City AFC and Bradford Bulls, but at times that support can be thoroughly tested.
