Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered has briefly appeared on the PlayStation Store, seemingly confirming a leak that occurred this Summer when a remastered version of the two games was mentioned on the base of a statue at San Diego Comic-Con.

The branding was quickly removed, but it was too late because fans worldwide(myself very much included) were hyped by the idea that Kain and Raziel might be returning in remastered form.

Now, it seems like the leak was legit. The remaster appeared on PSN, complete with screenshots, a trailer and a release date of December 10th. The most likely explanation is it was accidentally uploaded to PlayStation Network early ahead of its official reveal at today’s State of Play. There’s also a good chance that remasters of both Horizon: Zero Dawn and Days Gone will also be appearing at the event if recent rumours are accurate.

The listing specifically states it will contain the first two games, excluding the third one. It’s a weird choice, especially since the second game ends on a massive cliffhanger. Doing the whole trilogy would have made more sense, to me, but perhaps they want to hold it back for a separate release.

Over on X, Wario64 managed to grab the trailer and screenshots before they were taken down. More screenshots can be found on Resetera, where it was also mentioned that Aspyr is the developer.

The hope, of course, is that if a remaster proves successful it could pave the way for a proper sequel or reboot of some kind. I know I lost countless hours to Soul Reveal on PlayStation and would love to see the universe brought back.
