Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II Releasing 2024

During the latest Xbox Games Showcase, developer Ninja Theory revealed a new trailer for their upcoming dark fantasy adventure game Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, highlighting the titular character’s internal strife.

Chief Creative Ninja at Ninja Theory, Tameem Antoniades, mentioned that Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is not a straight sequel. The game is set in 9th Century Iceland. He says the combat is enhanced to be “extra and brutal.” They have also collaborated with Epic Games to deliver better-animated character renders.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is releasing for Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam in 2024.

In case you missed it, check out the previously revealed six minutes of gameplay back from 2021.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice follows a Celtic warrior named Senua as she embarks on a vision-given quest to save the soul of her dead lover from Viking hell. The game was created to show the struggles that Senua will go through as she struggles to keep sane.

During gameplay, players take on the role of Senua and explore the dark environment. Being a bit narrative-driven, the exploration parts are full of stories as players learn more about Senua. Players also travel to several locations and must complete light puzzles, but this is an action game, so while doing all this, Senua will have to fight zombie-like Viking enemies and bosses.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is available now on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
