Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) Surprised this didn't already have a thread, but hey, it looks like we might be getting some news soon as it has now been rated by the Australian ratings board. Something big next week at the TGAs, perhaps?

Posted December 8, 2023 Another Game Awards, and all we're getting is "it's still 2024" oh well, let it cook I guess Quote The sequel to the award winning Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, sees Senua return in a brutal journey of survival through the myth and torment of Viking lceland. Intent on saving those who have fallen victim to the horrors of tyranny, Senua faces a battle of overcoming the darkness within and without. Cool trailer, though!

Posted January 18 (edited) As leaked, May 21st: Digital-only. Edited January 18 by Julius Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 18 Digital only, disappointing. Looks good though, but it isn't very likely I'll play this at launch - I don't even own an Xbox yet. Hopefully by the time I get around to buying one they'll announce a physical version. The way things seem to be going for Microsoft though I wouldn't be surprised if this comes to other platforms eventually, maybe PS5 in 18 months or so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way things seem to be going for Microsoft though I wouldn't be surprised if this comes to other platforms eventually, maybe PS5 in 18 months or so Digital-only is very disappointing...and makes me think this is Xbox starting to completely cut corners (aka physical) in order to be on everything at any time. The leaked next Series X model being digital-only makes complete sense now, and I now fully expect them to be digital-only at a first-party level at a minimum by the time that releases. Insane. Glad this doesn't seem to have ballooned in scope and size (being shorter again? 8 hours?) as it fills a gap AAA doesn't seem interested in filling...but also, how and why has this then taken 4½ years? Very curious to see how this turns out, because it was never going to be a system seller but could be a great experience for selling the promise of Game Pass – but I don't know if it sells the idea of Xbox ownership all that well, either. Not being "full-priced" and being $50 seems a good way to balance that out, though...but again, no physical. I'm curious to see if this comes to other consoles too, guess we'll need to wait and see!
