Ember Lab has released patch 1.05 for Ken: Bridge of Spirits Released, which fixes several critical bugs. This includes the game-breaking bug on the PS4.
In some cases, players would have to put on Toro's mask during story progression but wouldn't be able to remove it. This prevented progress, which, according to the patch notes, has been fixed.
Furthermore, some options in photo mode have been optimized, but PS5-specific features have also been removed, including the 'Resume Game' feature for Activities. This prevents autosaves from being overwritten. These features will be reintroduced at a later date.

Ken: Bridge of Spirits It's available now for PS5 and PS4 and is already being enthusiastically received by players. And although the story itself is quite manageable, trophy hunters will have to invest well over 20 hours to snag the platinum trophy.
I'm experiencing the following bug in the game. When I pick up the shell (?) with the Rotts to place it at the waterfall, I can only lift it. Pressing "R" doesn't give me the option to move it with the Rotts... Picking it up and dropping it works, but it won't move.
