Kena: Bridge of Spirits exceeded all Sony's expectations and became financially successful

Since Ember Lab's project has already started generating revenue, the studio has begun planning its next game. The developers aren't saying what it will be, but the focus on the story will be strong

Brothers Josh and Mike Grier spoke with Bloomberg. During the conversation, the founders of Ember Lab studio proudly stated that Kena: Bridge of Spirits delighted Sony Interactive Entertainment, exceeding all of the company’s expectations financially. The game has already recouped its costs and started turning a profit. However, the exact number of copies sold and the amount of money earned were not disclosed.

Be that as it may, having broken even, Kena has made Ember Lab look to the future with more confidence and stop thinking about returning to making commercials. 

Initially, the Grier brothers founded an animation studio and even managed to work with major brands. The studio’s origins are evident in Kena, as many journalists praised the game for its art style, but criticized its gameplay.
