She must cleanse the village, and eventually face an unexpected foe to finally save it from its corruption. As an amateur Spirit Guide, Kena’s task is to send these spirits to the path of light, helping them find closure, but it’s not a walk in the park. The story kicks off with Kena guiding spirits in a deserted village that wields an untamed power infested by corruption, filled with hate and unrested spirits. I’m definitely hooked, the amount of challenges the game offers, its interesting world, an admirable protagonist, wisely implemented environmental puzzles, and the adorable little companions called Rot, Kena is one of the games that made it to my 2021 Game of the Year list. I kept playing Kena: Bridge of Spirits since its launch and I haven’t touched any other game since. There’s only so much when there’s just a handful of team members in a studio, but with their experience in short animation films, Ember Labs didn’t disappoint. But I was reluctant after knowing that Kena: Bridge of Spirits is a debut game from a studio that consists of 15 core developers with a few outsourced developers helping out. The trailers looked gorgeous, and the gameplay shown got me excited. It looks like there will be a beautiful and dangerous new world for players to explore when Kena: Bridge of Spirits releases in late 2020.Ever since Ember Labs revealed Kena: Bridge of Spirits last year, I’ve been eager to get my hands on the game that very much looks like a Pixar or DreamWorks animation film. The Rot look to add some interesting mechanics to battles, and the ability to stagger enemies with a shield ability will allow for some more finesse than simply mashing the attack button. It's vibrant environment is inviting, but the real test will be in how well the game delivers on combat. Kena: Bridge of Spirits is looking to be a bright action adventure that will also bridge quite nicely between the two versions of PlayStation.
#KENA BRIDGE OF SPIRITS RELEASE DATE TIME UPDATE#
Update 9/11/20: Ember Lab announced via Twitter that the challenges of working from home have slowed development of Kena: Bridge of Spirits, and the decision has been made to push the release date until Q1, 2021. That seems to coincide with the game's length, as Ember Lab COO Josh Grier said Kena: Bridge of Spirits was " something players could comfortably finish over a weekend."
Whether or not the game will come to other consoles down the road has not been confirmed. A price has also not yet been announced, but Ember Lab said it would be lower than a traditional $60 game.
#KENA BRIDGE OF SPIRITS RELEASE DATE TIME PC#
Kena: Bridge of Spirits is a timed PlayStation exclusive, so it won't be on PC right at launch.
No release date has been officially announced yet for Kena: Bridge of Spirits, but as of September 2020, Ember Lab hoped to have it in players' hands within a few months, which would coincide with a holiday 2020 release date. And while it doesn't appear that there will be cosmetics for Kena, players will be able to outfit individual Rot with hats.
They will also help Kena in combat by distracting enemies or giving Kena special abilities, though players will need to do a certain amount of damage before the Rot will join in the fight. Sometimes they'll assist her getting into hard-to-reach areas by forming a bridge or maneuvering a block into place. There are 100 of these adorable black creatures scattered throughout the game, and they'll help Kena in her travels in a variety of ways. It wouldn't be surprising if Kena must travel to each region and cleanse it as part of her journey.Īlso factoring into the combat and traversal mechanics are the Rot. The trailer for Kena: Bridge of Spirits shows Kena using her powers to cleanse a darkened, cursed-looking area and restore it to a healthy looking forest. Kena: Bridge of Spirits will not be an open-world game, but will instead feature a hub village connected to several different regions.
