The Switch 2 ports<\/a> keep on coming. This time it’s Kena: Bridge of Spirits, the award-winning 2021 title from Ember Lab. Previously announced for spring 2026<\/a>, the visually striking title now has an official release date of March 26.<\/p>\n

Kena: Bridge of Spirits won Best Independent Game and Best Debut Indie Game at The Game Awards 2021. It’s already available for PS5 \/ PS4<\/a>, PC (Steam<\/a> and Epic<\/a>) and Xbox Series X\/S and One<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You play as Kena, a young spirit guide on a quest to a sacred mountain shrine. Gameplay has a Zelda-like flair. (That could make it a solid next play after Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.) Like in Link\u2019s adventures, you\u2019ll find plenty of exploration, puzzles and fast-paced combat. That encompasses whacking bad guys with Kena’s staff, firing arrows and flinging bombs.<\/p>\n

Kena: Bridge of Spirits launches for Switch 2 on March 26 in North America, Europe and Asia. Meanwhile, folks in Thailand can get it a day earlier, on March 25. Details about Taiwan will be announced “soon.” You can preorder the game today in North America and Europe and get a taste of its Pixar-esque art style in the trailer below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Switch 2 ports keep on coming.
