Kena: Bridge of Spirits, the Pixar-looking game by Ember Labs, is less than 24 hours away. The game will launch tomorrow for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. The PC version will release exclusively on the Epic Games Store. The developer has released a new trailer to get us all warmed up for the launch. You can watch the trailer below.
Reveal and Several Delays
Kena is a story-driven fast-paced combat game that emphasizes exploration. It was first revealed back in June 2020 during a PlayStation event. The title was supposed to release late last year but got delayed to Q1 2021 due to the pandemic. The game was further delayed to August 24 and then again to September 21 for final polishing. Thankfully, that was the last delay, and the game is finally coming out.
Photo Mode
Ember Labs revealed that both the PC and PlayStation versions will feature Photo Mode. The trailer above also disclosed that the Photo Mode will have several options, including animations and poses.
Different Editions
Two versions of the game are available in Standard and Digital Deluxe Edition. Standard Edition comes with just the base game and costs $39.99. The Digital Deluxe Edition, on the other hand, costs $49.99 and comes with several extra goodies like Digital Soundtrack, Digital Deluxe Staff, and Golden Rot Skin. Both versions offer free next-gen upgrades.
Pre-Order Bonus
There is also a pre-order bonus. Today is your last chance to get Unique Rot Hats that will only be available for players who made the pre-orders.
Why This Game is “Make or Break” for the Developer
Kena: Bridge of Spirits is the very first game by Ember Labs. So, the success of the game will decide the future of the developer. From what we have seen, the game looks amazing. However, we have been burned several times. We will know for sure whether we have a winner on our hands tomorrow when the game launches.
