Everything we know so far about Hellblade 2, the Senua’s Sacrifice sequel coming to Xbox Series X and PC.
Announced back in 2019, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is developer Ninja Theory’s highly-anticipated sequel to its 2017 title Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. Exclusive to Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC, the game was revealed at the Game Awards in 2019 with a dark and mysterious trailer that didn’t really give much away. A couple of years later and we’re still eagerly waiting to hear more details about the game, include, crucially, its release date. It’s now been more than three years since we fought through the depths of Hel with Senua on her journey to rescue the soul of her dead lover from the goddess Hela so we’re more than ready to jump into a sequel. With the new Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S console out in the wild, we’re hoping that 2021 will bring more news about what we can expect from Ninja Theory’s Xbox exclusive. At the moment, Microsoft’s press conference at E3 2021 is looking like the most likely time we’ll get our next update. In the meantime, we’ve gathered everything we know so far about Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 below for your perusal. Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 was surprisingly announced at the Game Awards 2019 with a heart-pumping reveal trailer. The announcement told us that Hellblade 2 is coming to Xbox Series X, as well as PC, but it didn’t actually reveal a release date. Though it was one of the first-revealed Xbox Series X games, Hellblade 2 wasn’t referred to as a launch title, so we weren’t entirely surprised that it wasn’t released with the Xbox Series X in late 2020. However, now that we’re into 2021 we’re hoping to hear about some kind of release date soon. We’re tempering our expectations that Hellblade 2 will be a 2021 title, though, after the game didn’t appear on a January 2021 post on Xbox Wire revealing the games coming exclusively to Xbox in 2021. Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 was officially announced for Xbox Series X at the Game Awards 2019, with a peculiar and gritty reveal trailer. While the trailer didn’t give much away in terms of story and gameplay, it did confirm that this sequel looks much darker than its predecessor – which was already pretty dark.

This year’s E3 is going to be a little different to the usual—with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the ESA is taking the whole thing online.
