Apr 20, 2026Ascendance is a nostalgia-filled title that is not even worthy of borrowing the titular name of the franchise, let alone be the title that the fans waited decades for: it’s an unredeemable abomination.

Apr 20, 2026Legacy of Kain: Ascendance isn’t that bad of a game. But it’s also likely not what fans were waiting for. Having three characters to play through twelve levels sounds good. But all three play similarly and they aren’t evenly featured—with Kain only playable once or twice. Legacy of Kain: Ascendace is okay. But longtime fans will be left still waiting for the next big game in the series.

Apr 15, 2026Like its cast, Ascendance struggles awkwardly against the tides of a fate already written in a stone. It's saved by some incredibly evocative music, presentation, and a genuine love for its forebearers – even if it shows that love in clumsy and sometimes baffling ways.
