The release date for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 has finally been announced. The game is set to be released on May 21.
Ninja Theory and studio owner Microsoft first announced Hellblade 2 at The Game Awards in December 2019. However, a release date was not given at that time.
During the Xbox and Bethesda Developer Direct presentation, Studio head Dom Matthews said the game was “in the final months of development”.
Melina Juergens, who plays Senua in the game, explained the game’s plot. Senua wants to stop the Vikings who raided her village right at their source in Iceland. Senua herself has grown since the first Hellblade and is no longer in such fear of her visions and voices.
Ninja Theory co-founder Tameem Antoniades said they didn’t want to do a straight sequel, but something extra special. The game is set in ninth century Iceland, and the team has been doing photography, photogrammetry and combining it with satellite data to recreate large swathes of the landscape.
With the game in its final months of development and a release date set, anticipation is high for the sequel to the special Hellblade game. Fans are eagerly awaiting May 21 to experience Senua’s new journey.
