Microsoft has just announced that Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II will be released on May 21st. That’s four months from now. Moreover, MS revealed some new gameplay footage for this game at its Developer_Direct 2024 event.
In the sequel, Senua returns in a brutal journey of survival through the myth and torment of Viking Iceland. Intent on saving those who have fallen victim to the horrors of tyranny, Senua faces a battle of overcoming the darkness within and without.
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II will be powered by Unreal Engine 5 and looks absolutely incredible. My guess is that the game will take advantage of both Nanite and Lumen. Ninja Theory hasn’t shared any technical details, but that’s a safe assumption. This is the first triple-A game that will showcase what UE5 is capable of.
Sadly, Microsoft hasn’t shared any PC system requirements for it. However, we do know that Hellblade 2 will hit both Microsoft Store and Steam.
I’ve included below the Developer_Direct 2024 video. You can head over at 10:10 to find the footage for Hellblade 2. Once Microsoft releases a separate video, I’ll be sure to update the article with it.
Ninja Theory has shared the new gameplay video for Hellblade 2 which you can find below.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
