Key information
Developer Ember Lab has announced that Kena: Scars of Cosmera is now scheduled for release in 2027. The studio is delaying the title to ensure the game exceeds the quality of their 2021 debut, Bridge of Spirits, by delivering a more expansive and polished experience.
The game remains a character-driven, linear adventure, though it features a significantly larger and deeper world than its predecessor. Players are encouraged to explore off the beaten path to discover various hidden elements throughout the environment.
Mechanically, the game introduces a crystal dog companion that serves as both a mount for traversing the vast island of Cosmera and a combat assistant. This spirit also aids in solving alchemy-based puzzles and is deeply tied to the island's origins.
Narratively, Kena travels to Cosmera to meet her childhood friend, Orphio, seeking answers about her past and future as a Spirit Guide. The game will be available on PS5 and PC in both physical and digital formats.
