This puts the fan-favourite game, which will receive a sequel later this year, on the hybrid system.<\/p>\n<p>However, for developer Ember Lab, the launch will likely represent quite a bit more.<\/p>\n<p>Kena: Bridge of Spirits was the first game Ember Lab ever made, but before that, it was creating short-form videos on YouTube. The one that put it on the map was a tribute to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/n64\/legend_of_zelda_majoras_mask\" class=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Legend of Zelda: Majora&#8217;s Mask<\/a>, getting it over 15 million views since 2016. With an obvious love for Nintendo, the Switch 2 port marks a full-circle moment for Ember Lab as it actually publishes a game on a Nintendo console. Here&#8217;s the original video:<\/p>\n<p>This is a complete version of Kena: Bridge of Spirits that packages the base game alongside the Anniversary DLC and a New Game+ mode. It launches for Nintendo Switch 2 in Spring 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Ember Lab will have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/kena_scars_of_kosmora\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kena: Scars of Kosmora<\/a> for PS5 and PC players later this year. The follow-up has Kena visit an island in search of &#8220;a cure for her affliction and to reconnect with a friend from her past. There, she is confronted by a powerful corruption that fractures her staff. Needing it to survive, Kena must accept Kosmora&#8217;s forgotten and dangerous form of Spirit Guiding that manipulates the elements.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Will you play Kena: Bridge of Spirits on Switch 2?
