Original story, 9/20/21:
Ember’s Lab Kena: Bridge of Spirits looks with the same magical qualities of a magical Disney-Pixar movie. Two new trailers revealed more plot and gameplay footage, as well as an animation mode that made it so much fun to take pictures with NPCs (and I usually polish photo mode while playing games!). In addition, a deluxe physical version was announced in partnership with the publisher Maximum Games.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits follows the iconic heroine/spirit guide as she travels to a faraway land in search of a sacred mountain temple. The spirits have transformed into monsters, and only Kena can bridge the gap between life and death so that things return to normal. She’ll meet lots of colorful personalities along the way, including very similar little anthropomorphic creatures called The Rot, that will aid her in battle. For more plot details before the game is released, check out the launch trailer above or check out Marcus Stewarts’ Everything We Know About Kena: Bridge Of Spirits.
A Photo Mode trailer was also dropped today. Kena has no shortage of awe-inspiring scenes, vivid magical effects, and lovable character models. However, taking pictures will amplify these stunning images and “Say Cheese!” The option allows Kena and her friends to pose appropriately for the camera. I’ve never seen this component in a video game before (like I said above, I don’t normally enable photo mode in games – perhaps some of you have seen a feature like this in other games). other games?). However, there is no doubt that the game’s appeal and warmth shows through. I can’t wait to see all the pictures the players post on social media. Who knows, maybe I’ll end up jotting down some of my own memories.
The trailers are currently causing a stir, meaning you may have missed the news that Kena: Bridge of Spirits will also receive a deluxe physical version in November. Ember Labs in partnership with Maximum Games, a sub-publisher of titles such as A Plague Tale: Innocence and Minecraft Story Mode. For $50, this deluxe edition will launch with a copy of the game, a digital soundtrack, and cosmetics for The Rot and Kena employees.
Ember Labs CEO Josh Grier said: “Our community has shown great interest in their desire for a physical version from the moment we first announced the game. “It’s been an honor to create a game that people want to add to their collection, and we’re excited to partner with Maximum Games to make that happen so quickly after its initial launch.”
Does this news make you even more excited about the game, and are you planning on taking lots of pictures with the full cast?
