GETTING INTO THE GAME
TITLE MENU
1.At start-up, the game will scan for a memory card and check the data on it. If you are not using a memory
card, the game will allow you to play without saving game data.
Note: You MUST use a memory card to save your progress as you explore the world of Nosgoth.
Legacy of Kain: Defiance™ is an epic game. We recommend using a memory card, saving your progress frequently and continuing your saved games for the most satisfying game experience.
2.On the Title Menu, highlight Start Game and press the ˛button to begin. If you are not using a memory card, select Start a New Game to begin the game. If you are using a memory card containing a Legacy
of Kain: Defiance™ save, you will have the option to either select
Start a New Game or load a saved
game. Highlight the saved game you want to play and press the ˛ button. You will return to the game at the last checkpoint you reached prior to saving. (For information
on saving, see page 7.)
