VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "I’ll admit to a trifecta of positive biases when reviewing: a new developer, new IP, and fitting the middle-market mold. I think these are all great qualities to see flourish in the industry. But over-emphasizing this background info shouldn’t diminish Ember Lab’s actual work either. This team mastered a quality that even veterans have an issue with: succinctness. It’s not making adventurous strides in the genre, and a few issues still get to me, but that invisible-yet-tangible quality makes it more than the sum of its parts. That’s what puts this developer and Kena: Bridge of Spirits among 2021’s best success stories."
"Kena: Bridge of Spirits is beautiful, filled with charm and whimsy, and nails its gameplay - a welcome addition to the Xbox library."
- Stuart Cullen, TechStomper
Console Obsession says: "With Kena: Bridge of Spirits having been previously released on PS5 and PS4, it would have been easy to look up information to know what sort of game I was letting myself in for. But I decided to go in cold and experience the game without knowing much about it. "
Richard writes: "As Xbox gamers, we are sometimes late to the party. But that’s ok, as patience is a good quality to have. And patient gamers have been rewarded today as Kena: Bridge of Spirits has finally arrived on Xbox consoles for us all to play."
