Due to restructuring and internal changes, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S were not launched with the originally planned catalog. That means that even the first games announced for the console were not necessarily released at the time they were announced. In fact, some of them have not been released yet. <strong>And the first of all, Senua&#8217;s Saga: Hellblade 2, has recently received its release date<\/strong>.

But the wait is almost over. <strong>Because the Ninja Theory game will be released on May 21 for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC, available on Game Pass from day one<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to its developers, what we can expect is an evolution based on the foundations of the first game. With Senua accepting her past and her voices, she will become a heroine for a series of new allies, while she searches for the Vikings who have enslaved her people in 10th century Iceland. <strong>An Iceland devastated by giants, where both combat and binaural sound will have a greater weight, to immerse us in a story that seeks to show us Senua not as a superheroine, but as a heroine capable of always narrowly escaping situations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Senua\u2019s Saga: Hellblade II \u2013 Official Trailer | The Game Awards 2023\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3VYGOkMnGCE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The original game, Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice, was released on August 8, 2017 for PlayStation 4 and PC almost by surprise<\/strong>. Becoming a critical and commercial success, it stood out for its spectacular graphics, the astonishing use of binaural audio, and an exemplary narrative that addressed the protagonist&#8217;s mental illness, who suffered from psychosis, and was used with great sensitivity and interest in the game itself. This led to its adaptation to other platforms, such as Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This sequel seems to follow in the footsteps of its predecessor, impressing with its graphics and presenting all the elements that surprised us in the previous one. It even improves on less attractive aspects, such as its combat. <strong>To check it out, we just have to wait until May 21st<\/strong>. So there&#8217;s not much time left, considering how long we&#8217;ve been waiting.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-m\/p\/8c8087c4-8758-4527-b6bb-c7775a26e320\/1904431381\/senuas-saga-hellblade-2-download-senuas-saga-hellblade-2.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/senuas-saga-hellblade-2.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/senuas-saga-hellblade-2.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hellblade 2, the first game announced for Xbox Series X and S, already has a release date, despite having made us wait almost five years since its announcement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9268,"featured_media":271330,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":1},"categories":[1018,1015],"tags":[6164,3251,6165,6166,6167,1404],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-271328","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","category-news","tag-developer_direct-2024","tag-game-pass","tag-hellblade-senuas-sacrifice","tag-ninja-theory","tag-senuas-saga-hellblade-2","tag-xbox"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271328","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9268"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=271328"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271328\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":315176,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271328\/revisions\/315176"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/271330"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=271328"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=271328"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=271328"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=271328"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=271328"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=271328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
