Many of you will immediately recognize the name Nosgoth. It’s where the Legacy of Kain games took place. A world in which humans and vampires were constantly at war. Now Square Enix is taking us back to Nosgoth in a third-person, team-based multiplayer experience. Nosgoth pits vampires vs humans in a melee vs ranged kind of action.
