Ember Lab's acclaimed 2021 adventure game Kena: Bridge of Spirits is heading to Nintendo's new console this spring. The Switch 2 version includes the Anniversary DLC with Charmstones, Spirit Guide Trials, new outfits, accessibility features, and a New Game+ mode featuring tougher encounters.

The announcement came alongside news of a sequel, Kena: Scars of Kosmora, which launches on PC and PS5 later in 2026. The original game's arrival on Switch 2 marks another high-profile port for Nintendo's latest handheld, following a trend of publishers capitalizing on the system's enhanced capabilities.

Originally praised for its Pixar-inspired visuals and Zelda-like gameplay blend, Kena: Bridge of Spirits follows a young spirit guide helping souls transition to the afterlife. With its deceptively deep combat system and Ember Lab's animation background, the game offers a visually rich experience that should shine on the Switch 2's vibrant handheld display.
