I absolutely adore The Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, so when I heard the Gothic action-adventure romp was coming to one of my favorite portable retro consoles, I almost threw a weird PS1-themed party. The odd thing is that if you don’t already own a copy, picking up one for your Super Pocket is one of the only ways to acquire it in 2024, which hammers home the preservation benefits tied to Evercade systems.
Of course, if you’ve still got a bunch of the best retro consoles lying around, like the Sega Dreamcast or OG PlayStation, then picking up The Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver secondhand is still very much an option. However, if you’re aiming to enjoy the Vampiric Shakespearian adventure on a gaming handheld, your options are sadly limited. That’s where the Super Pocket comes into play, as thanks to its new Giga carts, we’re starting to see physical versions of cult classics re-emerge on the scene.
