Kena: Scars of Kosmora Pushed to 2027

Were you hoping to return to the spirit world with Kena next year? Bad news: you'll be waiting a bit longer.

Sony Interactive Entertainment and developer Ember Lab have officially delayed Kena: Scars of Kosmora, the sequel to Kena: Bridge of Spirits, pushing it to 2027. The news comes straight from the publisher and studio, so it's not a rumor you can brush off.

If you played the original, you know why this one stings. Kena: Bridge of Spirits won a lot of hearts with its gorgeous art style, heartfelt story, and those adorable little Rot companions. A sequel was always going to be a big deal for fans.

Now, instead of getting your hands on it sooner, you'll have to sit tight until 2027. That's a pretty significant wait, and it's the kind of delay that makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes.

To be clear, neither Sony nor Ember Lab have shared a specific new release date beyond the 2027 window. There's also no word yet on what caused the delay. Delays like this are usually about giving a game more polish time, but we don't have official details on that here.

For now, the takeaway is simple: Kena: Scars of Kosmora is still coming, just later than planned. If you were budgeting your gaming time around it, you've got some room to breathe.

We'll keep an eye out for any updates, whether that's a concrete date, new gameplay, or a statement from the dev team. Until then, it's a waiting game.

What do you think about the push to 2027? Are you still hyped for the sequel, or does the wait make you nervous? Let us know in the comments.
