The game utilizes the DualSense controller's haptic feedback for features such as Kena's Spirit Bow.[2]

Development

Kena: Bridge of Spirits is developed by Ember Lab, a 14-person independent studio based in Los Angeles. Founded in 2009 by brothers Mike and Josh Grier, the studio has worked on several animated commercials and branded game applications, and in 2016 released a viral short film based on The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.[2] The team felt that creating a video game was the "natural next step".[3] The game utilizes Unreal Engine.[4]

The game was announced on June 11, 2020, at PlayStation's Future of Gaming event, and is scheduled for release in late 2020 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.[5][6] It is a timed console exclusive.[7]
