SELL THIS IP TO NIGHTDIVE STUDIOS!
They're more likely to do something with it than you are, Square!

They aren't. I wouldn't mind Night Dive getting the right to remaster the games though.

What about From Software or CD Red?

If either of them would take on this series I'd say awesome. I just figured Nightdive would be ideal since they're resurrecting a lot of old titles already. From Software and CD Red seem like they'd be more concerned with creating new projects, though.

Anything but bloody From Software.

Sell this to THQ Nordic. We'll have remasters and maybe even a new game from the Darksiders dev team.

That may actually be a good idea. THQ was a$$ back in the day far as I was concerned but once they started making games like Destroy All Humans and Darksiders they showed significant improvement. I'd be down to see them grab the reigns of LoK.

Remaster would be great.

However, even though there are a fair amount of folks who greatly enjoy this series (including myself), I'm not sure there's enough to justify the cost of doing so.

If anything, I can see someone picking up to possibly redo the series, but the storyline is kind of a hot mess. It jumps around a lot with the whole time paradox thing. It'd be nice to see someone pick it up, remarket it and perhaps clean up the storyline a little bit as well as having the intention to actually finish the franchise with a one or two more games.

I think if someone was able to not just bring the old ones back, but also put out some new additions to the series, it may attract some new blood.

If memory serves night dive did look into BO1 a while ago but left it alone when they found out the full complexity of the legal situation and ports etc.
at least do this nightdive, if possible. I refuse to die before legay of kain is resurrected

Shame that one didn't get a remaster/redo. Could have done great things with it.

Think you might want to look into cryogenic technology in that case.

There's a pretty dedicated following for this series (including myself), but I don't see anyone picking this up.

Best we can do is write in/contact various studios. Kind of like what is being done right now for a remaster of the original .hack games. Cyber connect came out awhile ago and said they couldn't justify doing it because the money just isn't there, but still offered to keep the possibility on the table and encouraged fans to contact them. If enough interest, then they'd start looking into it.

LoK is a fairly old series as well. You'd have to replace at least one voice actor (Tony Jay) and I doubt Amy Hennig will come back.

Sadly it's two voice actors now. We lost Paul Lukather (Vorador) a few years back.

At least given recent news we know there have been a few pitches going on. One of them may stick eventually

Thanks for the update and sorry to hear about it.

The LoK series had a pretty awesome line up for voice actors and other staff from story, art and so on. It's a shame. They did a great job with this series. Sad to see it fade.

Agree. Moreover, there is also petition for that. Anyone can search for it and subsribe it.
Features from DarkSiders 1-3 are very near to ones that LOK has (say, Defiance).
The artstyle's gonna fit right in too.
