Game description: In this sequel to the Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, reassume the role of Raziel, and travel back through the currents of time into various eras of Nosgoth's past in your relentless pursuit of Kain. With new Soul Rever weapon enhancements, physical abilities, and relics, you'll battle vampire hunters, Sarafan warrior-priests, and spectral spirits, and then devour their souls. Unearth the mysteries of Nosgoth's ancient races, and expose the schemes behind the corruption of the Pillars and the vampire genocide.
The game continues the adventures of the vampire-turned-wraith Raziel, the protagonist of Soul Reaver. Though Raziel initially seeks to exact revenge on Kain, his murderer and former master, this objective is superseded by a higher quest for knowledge. Traveling through history, he gradually exposes the truth behind his own past and destiny.
