'Nosgoth' Canceled, Servers Shutting Down Next Month

by Rainier on April 8, 2016 @ 9:50 a.m. PDT

Nosgoth is a competitive, team-based Human versus Vampire free-to-play multiplayer experience set in the brutal fantasy world of the Legacy of Kain series.

Nosgoth is a free-to-play 3rd person team based PVP (player versus player) game set in a brutal fantasy world.

Nosgoth is named after the fictional land in which the Legacy of Kain series but is set on its own distinct era of the LoK timeline and knowledge of prior events is by no means necessary. All you need to know is that the two factions involved – Humans and Vampires – are locked in a bloody struggle to control the land of Nosgoth, a land they both share and call home.

Development for Nosgoth has ceased and the game will go offline on 31st May 2016.

It is with regret that today we can confirm that development for Nosgoth has officially ceased and we are winding down support for the game.

Between now and 31st May 2016 Nosgoth will remain available to play, after which the game will go offline. 

On behalf of the entire Nosgoth team we want to thank the community for all their feedback, support and dedication to the game during the closed and open beta phases. It's been a pleasure to build this game with your help, but ultimately its audience hasn’t grown enough to sustain ongoing operations.

All purchases made since 1st March 2016 will be automatically refunded.

Nosgoth is a fast paced and intense game that features two opposing factions with very different gameplay mechanics, both requiring different strategies and tactics. Within a match gamers play one round as Humans and one round as Vampires with both sides featuring a variety of classes.

  • The Humans primarily rely on ranged attacks and are most effective when staying together as group. Humans win through attrition, by wearing down the vampires at range and healing at various supply stations around the map. Armed with weapons from a repeating crossbow, to the ability to blind enemies with Sunlight Vial, the Humans are a force to be reckoned with.
  • The Vampires are dangerously focused on melee attacks, relying on speed and agility to attack the enemy from multiple angles. With mobility including scaling buildings and a flying class, the Vampires fight best solo in coordinated attacks with team mates and recover health by feeding off the Humans.
