Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice - New Gameplay

Hellblade is focused on Senua's point of view, as she embarks on a very personal journey through a hellish underworld made up of Senua's psychotic manifestations of her own reality and mind.

[ArchangelMike]

When does this game release, it seems to have been in development for ages.

[IamTylerDurden1]

So many great under the radar games coming to PS4. Hellblade, Wild, Boundless, Let It Die, Edith Finch, Hob, The Forest. These are high quality exclusives that deserve more attention. Most of them have great teams behind them as well.

[Hardiman]

Every game you listed has been on my radar for some time and you are so right that they need more attention. Any word on when The Forest is hitting?

[DigitalRaptor]

WiLD looks amazing, and from Michel Ancel, you need say no more. :)

I'm just worried about when it's coming out, because he's pulled in another direction by Beyond Good & Evil 2. I don't know which one to anticipate more, but great to know both are in development.

[Goldby]

It was originally just HellBlade and they pretty much revamped everything i believe last year when they changed it to Senua's Sacrifice, including new combat and realtime motion capture

[nveenio]

Yeah, they had mentioned getting to a point where they realized the game just wasn't fun and needed to reimagine some major components. I wish them all the best with this one, but it's going to need some serious polish to stand out against Tomb Raider and Horizon as a game with a female lead.

[DigitalRaptor]

I think it will be late 2017.

It seems that way because they announced it as an open-development independent AAA project. It doesn't fit into the "announced too early" category, cause they wanted to let people's opinions and feedback shape the game, and also experiment a little bit. I'm liking what I've seen so far, personally.

[Mr-Dude]

Beautiful visuals, but give me release!

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

Very excited. It's pretty amazing seeing what they accomplished with what little they had in the video diaries.

[bouzebbal]

Hopefully a release date at PSX. Looks decent

[TheOptimist]

Now this is a true cinematic experience

[kraenk12]

Quit your stealth trolling. If you had ever played a game by Ninja Theory you'd know they excel at gameplay too.

Edit: sorry, I assumed you were being sarcastic. Which mainly happened because your known to be a PC gamer who constantly flames agains Sony.

[TheOptimist]

-_-.....
Seriously the gamers over here are dumb. I love Ninja Theory, loved their DMC (Which was pretty cinematic in some situations) and Enslaved Odessey to the West. Why in hell's name do you think I would be trolling if it is my most anticipated game apart from Star Citizen and P.A.M.E.L.A. ??
You really need to grow up.
Also I called it cinematic, because this is going to be one of those few games that don't sacrifice gameplay for graphics.

[kraenk12]

@TheOptimist

I'm sorry man..I thought you'd be one of those guys who critisize PlayStation franchises for being cinematic. You know...this might have happened because you're known to be a PC gamer who constantly shoots against Sony or PlayStation...

Of course this time you weren't..because the game will be on PC too.

[TheOptimist]

@kraenk12
I criticize games, not for being cinematic, but having boring gameplay. If they have interesting gameplay, I can overlook all the linearity and cinematic experience. I couldn't care less about the hyped up cinematic games that do not have great gameplay.

[ShadowKnight]

Wow a PC/PS4 exclusive! Can't wait to try it out on my PC in native 4K!! Thank you Ninja theory🙌

[KingAlistair]

Me too.Looks intresting enough.

[WeAreLegion]

4K is for peasants. I'm playing at 16K. I bet you'll only play it at 60 FPS, too, you pleb.

[Goldby]

4X4k monitor's doesnt make it 16k

[WeAreLegion]

I know. I was making fun of the elitist douchebag I replied to.

Edit: You mad, dude? I actually will be playing this in 4K, just like you. But I'm not a dick about it, trying to make other gamers feel inferior.

[ShadowKnight]

Good for you. Salty

[StoneyYoshi]

@ShadowKnight

Honestly, you didn't really have to go into detail saying you'll be playing it in native 4K. I feel his comment was quite appropriate and not a sign of saltiness. :)

[Prubar]

Even though the gameplay looks a little rough I'm willing to give it a shot. Loved all of ninjas games including Heavenly sword, enslaved and dmc.

[bangoskank]

Always liked Ninja Theory despite Tameem's arrogance. This is looking amazing especially with the budget they're on.

[italkgame]

The sound design is appreciated during this trailer but I hope they tone it down during the game. It can be really annoying when one is trying to figure out what to do or where to go next in the vicinity of NPC's who keep shouting out the same lines over and over.

[kraenk12]

One of my main anticipated titles. Looks amazing. NT own a special place in my heart.

[OB1Biker]

Very impressive what they are doing with this game. However I feel its getting a bit too much emphasis on trying to show off and all. its nice they get awards and attention for their work but Id rather they focus more on the game marketing leading up to an anticipated release.

[Veneno]

Agree. They may end up putting themselves in a situation where the game cannot live up to the hype.

[jwillj2k4]

they better deliver this before or well after horizon. it looks similar in nature and will be overshadowed. on top of the fact that it has no buzz imo. ive not seen or heard any good / bad things about it so out of site out of mind.

Dont confuse what ive said for it looking/being a bad game. it looks really interesting, i just want it to have some time to spread its wings if it actually does deliver.

[OB1Biker]

I dont know where you see any similarity with Horizon honestly. 🤓

[jwillj2k4]

character design mostly. we havent seen much of this game besides that. i can tell you this game will be swamped if its release anywhere near horizon solely based on the horizon hype train as it nears release.

[_-EDMIX-_]

I don't think they're looking to outsell Horizon zero Dawn

[jwillj2k4]

true, but i want it to be successful if its good.

[Goldby]

The only similarity is a female protagonist.

Hellblade is about mental health and recognized as a form of therapy

[Imalwaysright]

Love the atmosphere.

[Maxor]

This must be a crap game because all they do is hype it up for years without showing anything of substance. For example, a gameplay vid with zero actual gameplay.

I'm done with this game.

[SuperbVillain]

this game seems like a walk in the park

[T2X]

Looks incredible. Day 1.

[Chaosdreams]

The gf will love this.

[Forn]

This and God of War will complete me. Hell, I'll throw in Horizon and Days Gone just because.

[IamTylerDurden1]

This will be the PS4s Heavenly Sword.

[JCW2005]

this game been on development hell for so long, expecting another duke nukem forever situation.

[Goldby]

Have you even paid attention to the 20+ developer diaries

[rezzah]

I will support the developers by buying this. Maybe they'll come back into the game with the other bigger developers.

I still don't like the direction they went with DmC, though I know Capcom had some level of influence.
