Tales of Kenzera: Zau is not a lengthy game like other Metroidvania titles like Hollow Knight or Ori. Completing the entire campaign takes less than seven hours, which might seem short compared to those other games. However, this isn’t necessarily a major drawback, considering the game’s price point, with many players also appreciating a more concise adventure, as committing 30 hours or more to a game can feel daunting.

For those seeking more mileage from their purchase, there’s the option to pursue unlocking all the in-game achievements. Fortunately, none of these trophies are tied to difficulty settings, allowing players to unlock them all even on the easiest setting.

Upcoming metroidvania game Tales of Kenzera: Zau is set to bring players an experience unlike any other, and it plans to achieve that in a few ways.

Know Thyself	Gold	Acquire all the Reflections by interacting with all six Baobab Trees; there are two in each Act, except for the last one.
Evening the Odds	Bronze	Equip your first Trinket using a Workbench. Naturally, you’ll need to obtain a Trinket in the first place.
The Art of Trinketry	Gold	Acquire all the 11 Trinkets hidden throughout the game world. Act Four does not contain any Trinkets.
A Warrior’s Way	Gold	Beat all three Spirit Rituals. Each Act hosts one Spirit Ritual, with three combat challenges in each ritual. All must be conquered to earn the trophy.
Shaman of All Trades	Gold	Unlock all Sun and Moon Skills, totaling 16 Skills, with eight in each category. Defeat enemies, acquire collectibles, and break purple orbs to acquire Skill Points. Pursuing 100% completion yields more than enough Skill Points to acquire all skills.
Perk Up	Silver	Unlock all four Trinket Slots. The first one is unlocked by default, and the remaining three are rewarded upon completing the three Spirit Rituals.
Soulful	Silver	Unlock all five Spirit Segments. Two are available by default, while the remaining three are rewarded to players for completing the three Spirit Rituals.

I am the Moon	Bronze	Defeat four enemies using a single Lunar Blast, the Moon Mask Spirit Attack that unleashes a massive beam of light. Acquiring this achievement in the Spirit Ritual is relatively easy; just ensure you have enough Spirit Segments.
I am the Sun	Silver	Defeat four enemies using a single Supernova, the Sun Mask Spirit Attack that summons a fiery tornado, annihilating everything within its grasp. Aim to achieve this feat in a Spirit Ritual; requires two Spirit Segments.

On the PC and Xbox platforms, Tales of Kenzera: Zau features 19 Achievements instead of 20. The absent Achievement is the Whole Again trophy, exclusive to the PS5.
