Following the latest reports and leaks, it has now been confirmed that the next project represented by EA Originals will be Surgent Studios’ single-player action-adventure platformer, Tales of Kenzera: Zau.
The game explores grief and the challenges of overcoming a devastating loss, in a story inspired by actor Abubakar Salim’s own experiences of losing his father.
“For a long time I have struggled to find a way to communicate my journey with grief. To now be able to do so through Zau’s story of loss, growth and healing in Tales of Kenzera: Zau feels so right”, says Salim. “For me, games are the most powerful medium for sharing stories. My late father introduced me to the medium, and what better way to honor him, our relationship and our love than through this experience?”
It is mentioned that this game will be a 2.5D Metroidvania style title. It will also feature a narrative guided by the god of death, Kalunga, who helps protagonist Zau as he travels through mystical realms to harness cosmic powers.
Tales of Kenzera: Zau is coming to PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch on April 23, 2024 and will cost $19.99. Anyone who pre-orders the game will also receive two Shaman Points to spend in-game, as well as a visual effect and an accompanying cartoon that looks to further explore the game’s story.
