Ninja Theory ‘sharing something from Hellblade 2 every day’ in the run-up to release

Ninja Theory has said it plans to share something from Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 daily in the run-up to the game’s release this month.

Having revealed Hellblade 2 alongside the Xbox Series X console in 2019, Microsoft is gearing up to release the game on May 21. It will be available for Xbox Series X/S and PC.

Ninja Theory announced plans to share Hellblade 2-related things daily alongside the release of a new screenshot, which is viewable below.

Hellblade 2 will be digital-only, cost $50, and will last as long as its predecessor, which took players about eight hours to complete.

In a recent interview with IGN, Ninja Theory studio head Dom Matthews said the studio’s fans enjoy shorter, more focused game experiences.

Ninja Theory says sequel doesn’t include graphics modes, and frame rate can only be raised on PC

“I think there’s a lot of pressure on people’s time these days and I think our fans, from what we hear from them, they enjoy a shorter game where our intention is that every step of that journey is meaningful… There’s an audience of people that want games that are focused,” he said.

Microsoft recently confirmed that Tameem Antoniades, who co-founded Ninja Theory and served as its chief creative director, has left the studio.
