Ember Lab's Kena: Scars of Kosmora is set to launch on PlayStation 5 and PC in 2026, following the surprise reveal during Sony's State of Play showcase. The sequel builds on the 2021 original's success, which showcased the PS5's graphical capabilities through its Pixar-inspired visuals and dynamic effects.

This time, spirit guide Kena travels to the mysterious island of Kosmora, where a powerful entity shatters her staff, forcing her to adopt new spirit guiding techniques. The trailer emphasizes expanded combat mechanics and introduces elemental gameplay that will require strategic use of Spirit Companions. Developer Ember Lab promises these new abilities will be crucial for overcoming challenging boss encounters.

Like its predecessor, Scars of Kosmora appears to maintain the series' signature lush visuals while significantly expanding the scope. The game features numerous boss battles and introduces elemental infusions that add depth to combat encounters. With its combination of stunning graphics, strategic combat, and charming companion characters, the sequel aims to deliver an even more ambitious experience when it releases next year.
