Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 has received a new trailer at The Game Awards.

Ninja Theoryand studio ownerMicrosoftannounced Hellblade 2atThe Game Awardsin December 2019.
“Hellblade was very special for us and we didn’t want to do a straight sequel, we wanted to do something extra special, and so we’re making our lives as difficult as possible in that pursuit,” Ninja Theory co-founderTameem Antoniades saidin a behind the scenes video released in June 2021.
“The game is set in ninth century Iceland, so we’ve been sending our art and audio teams out there doing photography, photogrammetry and combining it with satellite data to recreate large swathes of the landscape.
“On the character front, we’re building real costumes, scanning them in. We’re collaborating withEpic Gamesto bring you next generation digital characters.
“On the combat front, we wanted to be extra real and brutal and so Melina, our main actress, has been training for two years, and all of our animators have undergone combat training.”
