Kena: Bridge of Spirits Heads to Nintendo Switch 2 This Month
AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
Ember Lab's award-winning adventure Kena: Bridge of Spirits is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 next week on March 26th as a feature-complete release including all past updates and DLC.
Developer Ember Lab is bringing its visually striking adventure Kena: Bridge of Spirits to Nintendo's next-generation hardware next week on March 26th. Originally launched back in 2021 before expanding to Xbox platforms in 2024, the game arrives on the new console as a feature-complete package. According to Ember Lab, the upcoming port includes the Anniversary DLC and the New Game Plus mode right out of the box, ensuring players get access to all the added charmstones, spirit guide trials, extra outfits, and accessibility features released since the initial debut.
For players looking to jump in, pre-orders are currently live on the Nintendo eShop at a discounted pre-release price before moving to the standard retail rate. While the original release earned praise for its polished production values that rivaled major cinematic animations, critics often pointed out that its gameplay mechanics played things safe. Even so, the upcoming port gives handheld and console players another way to experience the starting point of the franchise as anticipation builds for the recently announced sequel, Kena: Scars of Kosmora.
As the studio gears up to take players to the mysterious island of Kosmora in the upcoming follow-up, bringing the first game to Nintendo's newest platform makes smart business sense for expanding the player base. Whether you are catching up on backlog titles during your commute or looking for a visually rich adventure to test out newer hardware, this release offers a solid entry point. You can read the original reporting and check out the announcement trailer over at Eurogamer.
