Take a journey to heal your heart when Tales of Kenzera: ZAU arrives this April

Electronic Arts and developer Surgent Studios have announced Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, a new action adventure platformer that presents an experience of finding hope and courage after loss. Check out the debut trailer for it below.

In the game, players will take on the role of Zau, a grieving hero on a mission to bring his beloved father back from the grasp of death. Guided by Kalunga, the God of Death, Zau makes his way through mystical 2.5D realms to harness the cosmic powers of the warrior shaman. Tales of Kenzera: ZAU invites players to embark on a journey of spiritual healing, where the hardest moments unmask who they can truly become.

Unfolding in the beautiful, yet treacherous, lands of Kenzera, Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is inspired by Bantu tales, rich with untold lore of chaos and order, memories of ancient shamans, sacred spirits and fascinating creatures. Players can wield and expand cosmic powers from the Sun and Moon masks to defeat restless spirits in rhythmic combat; they can manipulate time and crystallize enemies using the Moon mask powers, or launch fiery spears with the Sun Mask – all in meticulously hand-crafted animations. Set to multi-award-winning composer, Nainita Desai's enchanting original score, Zau’s quest to become a worthy spiritual healer takes place across several unique and vibrant environments.

The game is set to release on April 23rd, 2024 for PC, Switch, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
