It would always be a tough call, following the deeply Starship Troopers-inspired Helldivers 2 into the online co-op multiplayer space. However, through its early access, Offworld’s licensed horde shooter has performed impressively well. But how is it f...

At the beginning of this year, I could not have predicted how jam-packed May would be when it came to games. The biggest release on the calendar was Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, which we now know is good, but beyond that, it didn’t feel like May would be...
Today, NVIDIA announced the new games added this week to its GeForce NOW cloud platform. The library now has over 1,900 games, including Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, which launched just a couple of days ago. GeForce NOW users subscribed to the Priority tier can enable NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution or NVIDIA DLAA as well as NVIDIA Reflex. GeForce NOW users subscribed to the Ultimate tier can also enable DLSS Frame Generation to get the best performance in the game. In my review of the game, I wrote: Senua's Saga: Hellblade II keeps virtually the same scope and structure of the […]
It's been just a day since the official launch of Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, and PC gamers can already improve their experience with the first few mods. First, the Flat2VR community showed off a Virtual Reality mod for the single player cinematic game released by Ninja Theory. Thanks to Praydog's UEVR tool, Hellblade II already works with full 6DOF VR and can be played in first-person or third-person view. You will need to grab the profile from the Flat2VR Discord to get it properly set up. Also, make sure you're using a powerful PC. Senua's Saga: Hellblade II is full […]
Fresh off the release of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, Microsoft has reportedly greenlit the next project from developer Ninja Theory. The studio, which was acquired by Microsoft in 2018 for $117 million, has earned a reputation for creating high-quality...
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is out now, and on PC, it’s a demanding but visually dazzling experience if you’ve got the hardware (check out Alessio’s review of the game running on an RTX 4090 here), but what about consoles? Before launch, it was revealed that Hellblade II would only have a single 30fps visual mode on Xbox Series X/S, but at least that narrow focus would mean the game would consistently nail that 30fps, right? Well, about that… the folks at ElAnalistaDeBits have taken the Xbox versions of Hellblade II for a spin, and the results aren’t quite as solid […]
Cambridge-based game developer Ninja Theory has produced praiseworthy yet commercially unsuccessful games for most of its history, ever since the days of Kung Fu Chaos, a 3D fighting party game made exclusively for the original Xbox console. The same was true for Heavenly Sword, an action/adventure developed for Sony as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, a multiplatform release published by Bandai Namco, and DmC: Devil May Cry, which was also controversial among fans for the changes it made to the beloved CAPCOM series. Ironically, Ninja Theory found its big break when it opted to self-publish a […]
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II arrives tomorrow, and Microsoft and Ninja Theory have dropped one more stunning trailer that shows off the game’s impressive environments and facial animations. Don’t worry, there aren’t any spoilers, so check it out for yourself, below. While launching a long-in-development title like Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II would usually be a celebratory moment, some Xbox fans are worried, as Microsoft recently shut down a number of mid-size first-party studios like Tango Gameworks and Arkane Austin shortly after they had completed games. Thankfully, Microsoft insider Jez Corden has stepped in to provide a bit of reassurance, saying Ninja […]
May is shaping up to be a very, very good month for Xbox Game Pass—with some sleeper hits, like magic FPS Immortals of Aveum, and new games, like Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, arriving soon. And I bet Xbox is happy to have some good news to share right n...
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is among the few games whose visuals were not downgraded over its original reveal. On the contrary, they have been improved considerably. A new early comparison video put together by Cycu1 highlights how much the visuals of the second entry in the series by Ninja Theory have improved since its original reveal back in 2021. While some of the changes may not have been for the better, such as the changes made to volumetric fog and lighting, it is undeniable how the game generally looks better now than it did in 2021, even in the compressed […]
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II drops in just a couple weeks, and Microsoft and Ninja Theory have dropped a new featurette focusing on the game’s psychosis mechanics. As before, Ninja Theory has put a lot of effort and research into depicting psychosis accurately, with a professor of neuroscience and somebody who actually suffers from psychosis attesting to that in the video. For those more interested in the technical side of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, the video also features some gorgeous new snippets of footage. We also get a few a number of scenes we’ve seen before, but at least in some […]

The Senua's Saga: Hellblade II official PC system requirements were confirmed today alongside support for multiple upscalers. As detailed by developer Ninja Theory on X/Twitter, the game will require 16 GB of RAM even at low settings and 1080p resolution, which isn't particularly surprising considering the visuals the game will push. For the rest, the requirements seem reasonable enough for 1080p resolution and only become demanding for high settings at 1440p and 4K resolutions, requiring an Intel i7-10700k/ AMD Ryzen 5 5600x CPU, NVIDIA RTX 3080/ AMD RX 6800 XT / Intel ARC A770 GPU and Intel i5 - 12600K […]
