Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is officially coming to PlayStation 5 this summer, Microsoft has announced.
The game, which was released forXboxandPCin 2024, will be released onPlayStation 5to celebrate its one-year anniversary. No specific release date was listed.
The PS5 version of the game will also include “new features” that will come to PC and Xbox at the same time as a free patch; however, these weren’t detailed.
“Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II arrives optimized for PlayStation 5, and PS5 ProEnhanced, with added features and immersive haptic feedback for new ways to experience the award-winning and critically acclaimed next chapter of Senua’s story,” according to thePlayStationstore listing for the game.
VGC’sHellblade 2 reviewsaid it was “a mechanically dated game carried along by its incredible presentational flair”.
“Fans of the first game could perhaps split it across a few nights for a better experience, and Melina Juergens’ performance deserves to be seen,” we said. “It also deserves a more engaging experience, however.”
Xbox announced last February plans to bring a wave of games to PlayStation andNintendo Switch, in what appeared to be a significant change of strategy, starting withPentiment, Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves and Grounded.
Doom: The Dark Ages, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle, andForza Horizon 5have all made their way to PlayStation, with it being widely speculated that all ofMicrosoft‘s first-party titles will also come toSony‘s console going forward.
Last November, Microsoft’s gaming CEOPhil Spencerreiterated that the companywon’t rule out any first-party Xbox game potentially coming to rival platformssuch as PlayStation andNintendoin the future.
