![]() These are the main source of corruption plaguing the lands, being devoid of any life or activity due to an imbalance in nature, and filled instead with monsters. Of course, players shouldn’t expect an entirely peaceful time when exploring this world, as “Deadzones” are abound. The graphics in general are outright astounding, with lush greenery and detailed monster designs nearly everywhere, but it’s all of the little details and influence that help make Kena’s world a promising one, including a heavy use of symbolic masks and the unique implications when it comes to how technology in this world operates. If we’re being more specific, though, Bridge of Spirits probably has the most in common with the more recent Raya and the Last Dragon, thanks its heavy use of East Asian influences, from Balinese music to symbols inspired by Southeast Asian cultures and structures similar to Japanese Torii gates. More than a few folks have already compared the presentations and setup to a Disney or Pixar film, and the main reason for that would likely be the stylish visuals, with Kena and the Rot being fluid and expressive, making sure the photo mode will get used often. A group of unbelievably cute beings that help maintain balance, the two team up to help get behind the cause of some trapped spirits and mysterious growths in a village they come across. And at the start of Bridge of Spirits, they come across the actual star of the game, the Rot. Our protagonist, Kena, is a Spirit Guide that helps free trapped, wandering spirits in order to help them pass on. It’s impressive to see someone go from such humble beginnings to something mighty, but this may only be just the start as Ember Lab’s inaugural title, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, could easily serve as the beginning of what could be a legendary action/adventure franchise down the road. Back then, they didn’t know that their next project would become a key player in the reveal of the PlayStation 5, a nominee for the first Tribeca Games Award and arguably one of the year’s most anticipated games in general. In 2016, Ember Lab was a studio that just consisted of fourteen people releasing a Majora’s Mask fan film known as Terrible Fate.
