Crystal Dynamics is set to host a secret playtest for one of its upcoming projects in May, with rumors circulating that it could be a new game in the Legacy of Kain series. The developer previously conducted a survey on players’ interest in a potential return to the franchise, and over 100,000 people completed it. Crystal Dynamics has confirmed that the closed playtest is happening, but has not revealed which game will be tested. The last entry in the Legacy of Kain series was released 20 years ago, and fans have been eagerly awaiting news of a potential revival.

While there’s no confirmation that the secret playtest is for a new Legacy of Kain game, the fact that fans who completed the survey have been invited to participate is a promising sign.

Crystal Dynamics’ commitment to hearing fans’ desires for the franchise is also a positive development.
