Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is out now and we're pleased to announce the game is Steam Deck Verified.
Wield the dance of the shaman. Reclaim your father’s spirit.
A grieving boy begins to read a Bantu tale written by his late father. Adventure into the beautiful and treacherous lands of Kenzera as Zau, a young shaman who bargains with the God of Death to bring his Baba back from darkness.
With your cosmic powers and untried courage, you advance into unknown mythological lands. Once bursting with life, Kenzera is now rife with lost ancestral spirits. As Zau advances toward his goal, three mighty beings lie in wait, fearsome in their strength yet somehow strangely familiar. Will you embrace the dance of the shaman?
Embark on a poignant single-player story shaped by actor Abubakar Salim’s own experience with grief, discovering how love gives us the courage to press on after devastating loss. Wield powers from the Sun and the Moon to defeat restless spirits in rhythmic combat and become a worthy Nganga: a spiritual healer. Discover a rich universe with untold lore of chaos and order and journey through mystical 2.5D realms awash with color and depth, emboldened by multi-award-winning composer Nainita Desai's enchanting original score.
Crafted by Surgent Studios, the entertainment studio founded by actor Abubakar Salim (Assassin's Creed: Origins, Raised by Wolves) and published by EA Originals, Tales of Kenzera™: ZAU takes you on a thrilling emotional journey inspired by the rich myths of Bantu cultures.

Balance
All balance changes are written out in a separate article:
For the final phase of the season pass, we've added an ability to get season pass points in open world events.
Excluding caches and signals, they were not part of the deal.
A small portion of the points will be received instantly when clearing the event. These points will be given to each participant of the event in equal amounts.
The larger part will be given as a new resource with barter mechanics, at the base it can be sold to the exchanger, the merchant of the current season, at the rate of 1 resource per 25 points of season pass.
Since this is a barter resource, it will drop on death of the character into the backpack along with all other barter resources.
New open world events
We are adding bosses as new events. Bosses are introduced at the following locations:
The Cordon,
Agroprom,
The Dark Valley,
The Pit,
The Forest,
Dead City,
Graveyard,
Red Forest,
Yanov Outskirts.
The instant XP given to players for killing a boss is greatly increased, as opposed to clearing all other events.
New boss Matryoshka
New challenges, daily and weekly tasks
New daily tasks have been introduced to those already introduced at the beginning of the season.
In addition to daily tasks, weekly challenges and trials have been updated to focus on the game's activities.
Consumables
Price revision
We analyzed the current prices of items in the consumable store and concluded that some prices did not fully reflect the importance and impact of items on the gameplay. As a result, the pricing of the product range has been revised to better reflect performance and play value.
Thanks to this, the connection between the cost of a product and its benefits in the game became more clearly visible.
Changing the discount system
The discount system has been updated according to the new pricing logic:
Prices for consumables will now be the same at each base.
Players will receive a permanent discount of 2.5% from the original price of consumables upon reaching certain levels at various bases:
If the player has skipped any of the levels listed above, the discount will be calculated taking into account that level.
This update aims to create a more consistent and clear approach to consumable costs, as well as provide transparency in the pricing system.
Changing the operation of limits on the purchase of items
Previously, the timer until the limit was restored began counting from the moment the item was purchased and was applied to each unit separately.
This caused two problems:
It is unclear from what moment the limit timer starts counting;
It is unclear when the item will be available for purchase again.
Now the limit reset time is tied to the real time of the server and does not depend on the number of purchases.
Also in the description of items at the merchant, a display of the remaining time after which the limits will be updated has been added.
The number of items available for purchase cannot exceed the limits set on them, so buy up all stocks in advance before the reset time.
↓ The operation of limits has been changed for the following traders ↓
Exchanger
For items purchased with crimson casings and received in the “exchange” tab, the operation of limits has been changed as follows:
Subdivision Intendant
For chrono installation the limits have been changed in the following way:
The number of items that are available for purchasing remains unchanged.
