Kya: Dark Lineage

PS2

Plunged into a mysterious world, Kya must seek her way through multiple dangers to find her lost brother and a way back home. She discovers the Nativs, a peaceful tribe, oppressed by the Wolfens, the menacing army of the evil Brazul. Kya must lead the rebellion of the Nativs for their freedom, and the only way is to master magical powers to liberate the Wolfens from their mystical imprisonment and restore their Nativ identity.

Freeing the Nativs will send them back to build Nativ city and open shops - which will be used to sell Kya power-ups and abilities throughout the adventure. Steal your way through or fight head-to-head with hordes of Wolfens using original combat moves and magical strikes.

Kya will soar against various vertiginous wind currents on breathtaking flights, slide down extreme entwined turbulent tracks, through challenging obstacles and lush environments, and journey through unbelievable acrobatic freefalls as you get closer to her quest to save her brother and defeat the Fortress of Brazul.
