Through the course of the game we are shown flashes of back story, the relationships with Senua's parents, her psychological struggles, as well as her village being destroyed by Norse raiders.
In the original we follow a solitary Senua, armed with the skull of her lover Dillon, desperate to reclaim his soul from Helheim and the goddess Hela. That all said, story will no doubt be key to Hellblade 2.īecause for all the praise on Senua's Sacrifice: Hellblade, a huge portion of that was for the narrative, and the powerful message that Senua's struggle and journey delivered. So far, the studio has focused on the technology behind Senua's Saga and the breathtaking locations it has been able to create – think back to that 2019 reveal, and it was all huge landscapes, swamps filled with skulls and bones, volcanic eruptions, sacrifices, and mass hysteria. Ninja Theory is yet to reveal all that much about the Hellblade 2 story. He noted that development of the first game was completed by fewer than 20 people, and that Ninja Theory has drastically scaled up its production efforts for the sequel – as a result, we should expect the Hellblade 2 combat to have more depth, and for enemies to be more varied. In an interview with Vandal, combat designer Juan Fernández explained that Ninja Theory was 'raising the bar" with respect to Hellblade 2 combat. While Ninja Theory was once known for creating fast-paced action games – like Enslaved: Odyssey to the West and DmC: Devil May Cry – Senua's Sacrifice was more subdued, with a greater focus on considered storytelling and inner-turmoil.
From what we have seen of it so far, the Hellblade 2 gameplay is set to offer more of the same. Created in collaboration with neuroscientists and people who experience psychosis, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice will pull you deep into Senua’s mind.Senua's Sacrifice: Hellblade was a third-person action-adventure game – it was tightly designed, with Ninja Theory focusing on just a handful of mechanics that were executed well. Set in the Viking age, a broken Celtic warrior embarks on a haunting vision quest into Viking Hell to fight for the soul of her dead lover. From the makers of Heavenly Sword, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and DmC: Devil May Cry, comes a warrior’s brutal journey into myth and madness.
