Nosgoth goes into open Beta next week

Nosgoth, Square Enix’s spinoff from the Legacy of Kain series, is due to enter open beta on January 21st, the publisher has announced.

Developed by Psyonix, Nosgoth is a free-to-play, assymmetrical, competitive multiplayer action game, where teams of Vampires and Humans face off in tightly-designed maps. It’s been in closed beta now for quite some time, and while those hoping for a proper single-player return to the world of Kain and Raziel, Nosgoth is actually quite a fun game in its own right.

Oli Zimmerman previewed the game for us back last August. “Nosgoth is a free-to-play game that can easily stand on it’s own,” he said in his Nosgoth Preview. “It may look like a generic third-person shooter but it’s far from it – give it a try, when you find yourself with a smile on your face don’t say I didn’t tell you so.”

To celebrate the launch of the open beta, Psyonix will be rewarding players with double XP for the first week.

Here’s a video of the developers playing the game and giving an overview on the development and design process:
