It
looks
like
Kena:
Bridge
of
Spirits
may
finally
be
making
its
way
to
Microsoft’s
console,
indicating
that
PlayStation’s
time
exclusivity
agreement
is
over.
Kena
launched
on
PlayStation
in
2021
and
while
it
was
never
officially
confirmed,
many
people
speculated
that
developer
Ember
Lab
may
have
signed
a
timed
exclusivity
deal
with
Sony.
Ember
Labs
themselves
confirmed
this
in
an
interview
with
SegmentNext
around
the
time
of
the
game’s
launch.
When
asked
about
the
game
only
appearing
on
the
Epic
Games
Store,
Co-founder
and
COO
of
Ember
Lab,
Josh
Grier
said
that
“We
are
currently
focused
in
our
launches
for
PlayStation
and
Epic
Games
store,
which
are
timed
exclusives.
We
will
look
into
other
platform
releases
after
launch
and
a
rest.”

The
game
then
made
its
way
to
PC
in
2022.
When
asked
on
Twitter
in
2023
about
the
possibility
of
the
game
coming
to
Xbox,
Ember
Labs
simply
replied
“Never
give
up!”.
Now,
it
looks
like
that
timed
exclusivity
window
may
finally
be
coming
to
a
close.
US
ratings
board
the
ESRB
has
listed
Kena:
Bridge
of
Spirits
on
Xbox
Series
consoles.
While
it’s
always
possible
for
accidents
to
occur,
it’s
unusual
for
a
ratings
board
to
list
something
without
good
reason
as
the
game
has
to
first
be
submitted.
Kena:
Bridge
of
Spirits
holds
a
pretty
good
Opencritic
score
of
81.
While
no
sales
numbers
have
ever
been
shared,
in
an
interview
conducted
with
Bloomberg
in
2021,
Josh
Grier
of
Ember
Labs
said
that
Sony
was
happy
with
its
performance.
