After several delays, the action-adventure by Ember Lab, Kena Bridge of Spirits, is finally hitting its release date this week.

Kena Bridge of Spirits Release Date: September 21, 2021

Kena Bridge of Spirits puts players in the shoes of Kena, a young Spirit Guide travelling to a mysterious abandoned village in her search for the sacred mountain shrine. The game boasts some brilliant visuals, puzzle-oriented environmental traversal, and some fast-paced combat. The game is also a console exclusive on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, with the official page‘s overview stating:

“Embark on a captivating adventure featuring a unique companion mechanic and thrilling combat.

Immerse yourself in a story-driven action-adventure set in a charming world rich with exploration and fast-paced combat. Play as Kena, a young Spirit Guide travelling to an abandoned village in search of the sacred mountain shrine.

Find and grow a team of tiny spirits known as the Rot who maintain balance by decomposing dead and rotting elements. Enhance your companions’ abilities, create new ways to manipulate the environment and uncover the secrets of a forgotten community hidden in an overgrown forest where wandering spirits are trapped.”

The game will also be available on PC via the Epic Games Store. Despite the delays, Kena Bridge of Spirit seems like quite the ambitious debut outing for the developers at Ember Lab, who is perhaps most well known for their work on an animated short film for The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Their repertoire for animation and artistic design shines even in the upcoming game's trailer, but we won't know just how good the game will feel to play until its out. Again, the Kena Bridge of Spirits release date is on September 21, 2021.
