Fans of the Hellblade franchise were treated to an adrenaline-pumping showcase of the highly anticipated Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 during The Game Awards 2023. The newly released gameplay trailer provided a closer look at the intense and gritty combat that awaits players in the sequel.
The trailer showcased Senua engaging in high-impact combat against a variety of disturbing enemies. From foes breathing fire to others wielding massive weapons, the adversaries appear towering and formidable compared to Senua’s petite stature. The combat sequences were a feast for the eyes, featuring high-quality graphics and fluid animations that further intensified the gaming experience. Cinematic camera angles during combat encounters added a unique touch, making each battle feel like a gripping, cinematic experience.
While the gameplay trailer was a highlight at The Game Awards, fans hoping for a long-awaited release date announcement were left wanting. Ninja Theory did not provide a specific date, although the trailer hinted at the year 2024 for the release.
Despite the lack of a release date, there was a silver lining for Xbox and PC players. The trailer reconfirmed that Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 will be available on Game Pass upon launch.
