Kena Bridge of Spirits, Ember Lab acquired by Epic Games? No, just a misunderstanding

Kena Bridge of Spirits

Shortly after the announcement of the acquisition of the Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout team by Epic Games, the news of a further expansion of the company was mistakenly spread.

A twitter published by the official Twitter account of Ember Lab has in fact quickly sparked a word of mouth dedicated to an acquisition of the software house by Epic Games. However, the news quickly turned out to be false, with a denial coming directly from the authors of Kena: Bridge of Spirits. After removing the original tweet, the developers of the promising indie have in fact explained that the previous message was simply aimed at celebrating the future publication of the title, which in addition to the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, will arrive at Day One also on PC, exclusively Epic Games Store.



False alarm therefore for the moment, with the software house that retains its independence, while the time to debut on the scene is approaching. With a background in the field of advertising and animation, Ember Lab has in fact only recently approached the world of videogames and the epic of Kena and the tender Rot will represent his first work. With the presentation of the game at the latest PlayStation State of Play, our Giuseppe Arace has created a new preview of Kena: Bridge of Spirits, awaiting the release of the game in the summer.

ANNUAL HOSPITALITY TRADE SHOW SUCCESSFUL STOP ON CANADA’S ROAD TO RECOVERY

Restaurants Canada supports industry through educational and interactive virtual trade show; industry leaders demand continued conversations and support for foodservice and hospitality industry coming out of the RC Show 2021 ONLINE LIVEToronto, March 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Serving a dynamic lineup of solution-based content, all centered around the theme of “Feeding the Recovery,” Restaurants Canada’s annual trade show brought together thousands of restaurateurs, chefs, industry professionals, and the largest Canadian and global brand leaders, to provide innovative solutions and insights to help the Canada’s restaurant industry survive and even thrive during challenging times. From February 28 – March 3, 2021, the RC Show 2021 ONLINE LIVE presented over 150 global experts, 30 unique sessions and 50+ hours of empowering thought leadership, research, trends, and insights to help Canada’s hardest-hit industry recover from the ongoing economic and public health crisis. From labour challenges, designing for delivery and surviving the pandemic, to mental health and tackling racism and discrimination in “the kitchen,” RC Show attendees virtually gathered via a new custom-built platform to listen in on the most pressing issues facing the industry, as well as get first-hand accounts of how restaurant operators have quickly and effectively adapted. “Restaurants are a cornerstone of our communities and we are proud to be able to support the foodservice industry through education and innovation at this year’s RC Show, but the conversation around Canada’s foodservice sector is far from over,” says Todd Barclay, President and CEO, Restaurants Canada. “We stand ready to work with government and health professionals as part of the solution to reopen safely and aid in Canada’s economic recovery and we have shared creative/innovative solutions to ensure as many restaurants as possible are still left in the picture.' This crisis has had a devastating impact on employment in the industry, with more than 380,000 fewer jobs than there were in February 2020, and eight out of 10 restaurants are either losing money or barely scraping by and could take a year to return to profitability. Proposing both lockdown and recovery support—including an extension of the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy and Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy—and a strategic reopening plan that invests in rebuilding consumer confidence across the country post-pandemic, Restaurants Canada is strongly urging all levels of Canadian government to step up with further assistance to help restaurants pull through. “The response coming out of our conference was loud and clear. There needs to be an evolution from emergency measures to a framework that supports business continuity and favourable economic relaunch conditions for the longer term. We’re doing everything we can to support the industry from within, with the RC Show being proof of our commitment to providing tools and insights to help restaurants survive, but it’s not enough,” continues Barclay. “If we want to build back a stronger, sustainable economy that continues to reflect our country’s incredible diversity, our industry is the best place to start. Because literally and figuratively, restaurants are key to feeding the recovery.” In order to be able to keep operating, despite revolving restrictions and inconsistent guidelines, Canadian restaurants have invested more than $750 million on staffing, training, sanitizer stations, masks and gloves, air purification systems, and other protective equipment, to keep their staff and customers safe. This year’s RC Show coincided with Restaurants Canada’s “Picture Life Without Restaurants” Campaign, recognizing restaurants as family and encouraging Canadians to take action to support them by dining in where allowed, ordering takeout or delivery, and purchasing gift cards.
