Legacy of Kain: Dead Sun was an action-adventure video game developed by Climax Studios for Square Enix Europe, with an accompanying multiplayer component developed separately by Psyonix. Conceived as the sixth entry in the Legacy of Kain series, Dead Sun entered production for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and Xbox 360, but was cancelled in 2012 following three years of work, and initially remained undisclosed to the public. Square Enix Europe and Psyonix salvaged the planned multiplayer mode, which they reconceptualized as Nosgoth, a standalone free-to-play title.

Shortly after Nosgoth's announcement in 2013, a poster at the internet forum NeoGAF unearthed Dead Sun in an extensive report, publicizing media and accounts from sources in Climax Studios. Square Enix Europe subsequently acknowledged the scrapped project with the conclusion that Dead Sun "just wasn't the right game, at the right time." Further articles, revealing gameplay footage and concept art, ensued later in the year. Video game publications responded negatively to news of the cancellation, and most commentators expressed their sustained interest in a single-player revival of the franchise. -Wikipedia
