Set against an intricate tapestry of Bantu culture-inspired environments and lore, Contes de Kenzera: LARGE guides players through a Metroidvania-inspired journey exploring the resonant love between a father and son, découverte de soi, resilience and finding courage within oneself after loss.

"Contes de Kenzera: LARGE is a culmination of years of dedication and exploration, and telling Zau’s story has been a vulnerable and unforgettable creative endeavor,” said Abubakar Salim, Surgent Studios founder and BAFTA-nominated actor. “Video games are an incredible storytelling medium that have the power to transport players to new realms and evoke powerful emotions through both new and familiar experiences; bringing Zau’s story to life made me feel closer to my late father, and honoring our memories together through this powerful medium has been an absolute blessing. We’re so thrilled to finally share Contes de Kenzera: LARGE with the world and hope that players will find as much inspiration, excitement and healing in the game as we did in bringing it to life.”

En Contes de Kenzera: LARGE, players step into the shoes of Zau, a warrior-shaman grappling with profound loss as he endeavors to resurrect his father from the clutches of death. Guided by Kalunga, the God of Death, Zau navigates mystical 2.5D realms, striving to harness the cosmic powers of the sun and the moon.

Contes de Kenzera: LARGE takes players on an evocative voyage of spiritual healing in which resilience in the face of adversity reveals one’s true character and strength. Featuring stunning visuals, a stellar cast of talented voice actors and a captivating soundtrack set to multi-award-winning composer, Nainita Desai’s enchanting original score, Contes de Kenzera: LARGE weaves together Bantu inspiration and futuristic vibrancy to craft a world brimming with tales of ancient shamans, sacred spirits and mesmerizing creatures. Meticulously crafted animation immerses players in the true power of cosmic energies through the Sun and Moon masks, engaging in rhythmic combat to vanquish restless spirits.
